College Days Are Rosy Now; Imagine Cambridge In 1848
If you feel the need of "escape" imagine yourself a student at Cambridge university in 1848. Of course, you'd have to be a man or you wouldn't be there. The only females allowed on the campus were the "hedmaker," who were chosen because of their middle-age and homeliness.
You would find the library unheated all winter and the head librarian in a wheelchair because he was crippled from rheumatism.
In the university dining hall, the table at which you sat would indicate your financial status.
You would be compelled to wear your cap and gown as a school uniform from the day you enrolled until you were graduated
You would have a choice of two courses of study: Greek and Latin, or mathematics. If you wanted to major in Greek and Latin, you'd first have to win honors in mathematics.
If you survived three years successfully your place in the commencement line of march would indicate your exact standing on examinations, the last man having the lowest grade.
If you escaped being "plucked" (flunked) on examinations, you'd find your grade posted in the downtown stores. If your grade was good, your local merchant would proudly point your name out as one of his customers.
You would probably have several fights with the local boys who didn't attend the university. "Townsmen" were natural enemies of "gownsmen".
You would not be permitted to speak to the head of your college. You might share your umbrella with him on a rainy day, but you mustn't expect him to converse as you walked along together.
How would you like to go back to the good old days?

Strictly a scientist. Would never do "math" without a slide rule—or themes without his Royal Portable. Royal's special features, such as easy-setting "Magic" Margin, "Touch Control," and Finger Flow Keyboard help do faster, better typing. P.S. This brainy genet makes spending-money typing work for others, too.
