(University of California at Davis)

You will share this apartment with two graduate mail students, and we
are looking for a clean graduate student.


Do you suppose they meant "male"

Possibly. But what do you suppose "clean" really means? Bathed once a

College must be more fun today than a generation ago.

My son shares an apartment with four female students. (Unheard of in my

I don't understand, he didn't come home to live with mom/dad this summer.

No - just e-mail and snail-mail. Uni-sex - gosh these are Graduate types anyway :-)
