skysongx . . . tom said they tore down my study tree!!!! but 42 is still standing as of a few days ago, i looked at some pix and felt a surge of nostalgia for the girls of 325. lourie-love and 1922 are gone though
butler is AWESOME. besides getting sweet housing and a totally revamped dining hall (not sure when that's supposed to be finished, but i know everything will be all shiny and new), you have either air-conditioned hotel-esque housing or really beautiful centrally-located gothic.
however, the biggest advantage comes with the trademark butler attitude-- the "we-don't-take-no-crap-from-nobody" kind of deal. there is solidarity in ugliness.
