I realize this is asking a lot takingthe time, not only to write a review, butto remember back to first or second termto what we all would most like to forget- but I urge you to try. The success ofthis year's CL.U.E. depends on it.

But this is not all I'm asking of you,no sir! Shortly after Drop Day, you willreceive more requests those for thirdterm. I urge you to fill those out whilethe experiences are fresh in your mind.

So there it is. This CL.U.E. is notthe beginning. There are neither begin­nings nor endings to the making of theCL.U.E. But it is a beginning (apolo­gies to Robert Jordan).

Many of you (undergrads) will find3-5 requests for (Courseing for Undergraduate Education) re­views for first and second term classese-mailed to you in the next week or so.You may have noticed that you did notget requests first or second term aboutthese classes and are wondering why theyhave arrived so late. Well, I'll tell you.Here at Caltech, slackers abound. Theformer ASCIT Director ofAcademic Af­fairs was no exception. Yes, requests forfirst and second term should have goneout long ago, but they haven't. That'swhy they're going out now.

A little bit about the mechanics ofcollecting reviews (please bear with me):this year, in order for the average studentto receive 3-5 requests (instead of 7-9),we have limited the requests to 20% ofeach class (e.g., out of 200 people in

Onefriend suggested convertingMillikan library into the world'slargest manifestation of life- sizedHooks and Ladders - should wereplace the die with definite inte­grals?

My only destructive sugges­tion is to let the earthquake engi­neering folk shake Millikanbuilding to failure in one of thegrandest experiments to date ofinstrumented building failure dueto large ground motion. My fa­vorite idea is perhaps even a con­structive one: convert the build­ing into undergrad housing andconvert one of the old buildingsnear the Athenaeum into the li­brary. I suspect that a room witha view nine floors to explore, andthose super high ceilings wouldmake the undergrads happy abouthaving given up the lore associ­ated with the houses.

Ifundergrad housing doesn'tgo down well, then theundergrads should at least be al­lowed to put the contents ofMillikan library on the lawn aspart of the biggest prank everpulled at Caltech. And herein liesthe ultimate irony of my letter:instead of trying to make Millikana home for books, why not try tofind something that is at home inMillikan?

Not any more! Radical ideassuch as moving the contents ofMillikan onto the lawn can spawneven more radical ideas since thefloodgates have now been openedand the torrent unleashed. So letthe ideas tlow...

A digression into possibleuses of the building is definitelyin order here. The word "dysfunc­tional" became popular in the six­ties, around the same time that theMillikan library was conceivedand erected. It would thereforeseem appropriate to ascribe thatword to the library. In fact,Millikan could be converted intoa museum of dysfunctional build­ings, with the daily trials andtribulations of Caltech studentsenacting vorticity from aLagrangian perspective servingas the prime exhibit.

The Millikan museum couldeven have one of those revolvingrestaurants on the top that wouldcharge expensive prices for an ex­hi�aratingview of the San Gabrielmountains at sunset - whenavailable. The revolving aspectserves as an ever present reminderof the previous incarnation of thebuilding (and of the afterlife tocome). Areal money winner anda cultural boon for the campus ­the veeps would drool over thisidea for sure. Like I said earlier,leave the collection on the lawn;it is peripheral to the issue athand.
