Fran Shields, Athletic Director
Ben Schachtel Perched atop a tall bookshelf in the corner, a mud-caked hat seemed out of place. The rest of the office was clean, save for a veritable mountain of paperwork on the desk. The man who had been sitting across the table from me had risen now and was walking towards the hat, which, [...]

The Book-A-Zine is a rather inconspicuous store on Bank Street. I would have easily walked right by it without noticing that it is a sex shop. As soon as I walked through the door, the man working there asked me my age, saying, “You look very young.” When I replied that I was eighteen, he [...]
