The Pennsylvania groundhog predicted six more weeks of winter when he saw his shadow on Monday, which we suppose just makes spring and graduation seem further away. Seniors are hoping that's the case with this week's kickoff to Feb Club, a month-long pub crawl for seniors... at least those who are not too disillusioned to believe in some semblance of school spirit. Things unfortunately went slightly awry at Smoke's on Sunday night, when overzealous early birds hung around too long, leaving no room and a line all the way to Marathon for those who arrived after, like, 10:15. But as seniors sweat out their final days, weeks and months, the pre-frosh seem to have arrived earlier than their usual Spring Fling entree. Various Spruce Street parties reportedly let "all girls" in Saturday night; news apparently made it to the Main Line's 15-and-under crowd. We expect the new pledges will be blamed. And on Locust: the alleged on-floor urination by a female at Beta's Super Bowl-themed Party. We're still trying to figure that one out. As the week went on, the groundhog seems to have been right. Nearly four inches of snow yielded a massive midnight snowball fight outside the high rises. Which is cute, sort of. For pictures, see our back page. And lastly, R.I.P. Juicy Campus: what took so long?
