All we want for...

The war continues... 

... Christmas is a Christmas tree! The war continues on the Steds Christmas decorations. Yes, picking up from last year, the Hall continues to press to have its Christmas tree placed atop its main portico. Too tall an order? Tosh. But to our friends in Risk Management this is a portico too far... too far off the ground, making it dangerous for anyone to ascend. In the end, the casualty is our Hall Christmas tree. On the War of Christmas Decorations, Fr. Ralph said, "Our resolve and determination have never been stronger. We will continue to fight until we have our tree!" Echoing these sentiments, a parent of two former Stedsmen, added, "We shall fight them in the quads; we shall fight them in the traffic circles; we shall fight them in the snow drifts.... we will never surrender!”
