"Stover, it's a bigger thing than just the peace of mind of our class."
"But what is your objection to us?" said Stover.
"My objection is that just that class feeling and harmony you spoke of your societies have already destroyed."
"In what way?"
"Because you break in and take little groups out of the body of the class and herd together."
"You exaggerate."
"Oh, no, I don't; and you'll see it more next year. You've formed your crowd, and you'll stick together and you'll all do everything you can to help each other along. That's natural. But don't come and say to me that we fellows are dividing the class."
"Rats, Gimbel! Just because I'm in a soph isn't going to make any difference with the men I see."
"You think so?" said Gimbel, looking at him with real curiosity.
