Is Love Dead?

TO THE EDITORS OF THE CRIMSON

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

In the past, The Crimson has occasionally run articles discussing the climate for love and romance at Harvard. While shopping for textbooks last week, I noticed that unlike almost every other college bookstore, the Coop does not sell teddy bears with shirts that say something like, "Somebody at Harvard Loves Me."

College students from Wellesley to UMass can express their affection by giving their partner a teddy bear with a message, but apparently not Harvard students.

Might this sad situation exist because there is just no market for such teddy bears? Tell me, is this proof-positive that love is dead at Harvard? Jol A. Silversmith '94
