Under 'Clothes': 'Summer lingers late in New England and light clothes are comfortable into October. With the first snowfall the campus blooms with colorful ski-suits, often worn to classes as well as for winter sports. This is the season for goloshes, heavy socks, woolly bathrobes and an extra blanket. Lounging pajamas make for undistracted studying. Soft-soled slippers are worn in the dormitories after ten.'
