Ben Dickens has finally brought something to The Daily Tar Heel that I thought I'd never see again: a decent columnist. Dickens whimsically characterizes student life with a variety of humorous anecdotes that cleverly carry a deeper meaning. His column Friday concerning the dating pool at Carolina was right on the mark. Congratulations to Ben on the most honest characterization of the most overrated aspect of this University other than men's basketball. One can only hope that the power of Dickens' message will revitalize the stagnant drivel that flows from the minds of other DTH columnists.
