Some things change...

JK was on the phone from Denver for his Saturday meeting of the Executive Committee of the Alumni Association of Deerfield Academy - and four seniors talked about their experiences.

One vignette he thought might be interesting to the class:

Johnson and Doubleday, the dorms which were new in our day, is now the home of the 9th grade Village. All freshmen live there - boys in one and girls in the other, and they all hang out in the Crow Common Room and make natural friendships.  The seniors, some who are proctors there, almost unanimously felt that the Village helped the 9th grade bond better.
