Hello everyone!
This is James, and I've found an idea I kind of like. Discussed at the
final '86-'87 SWIL meeting was the concept of the PEANUTS gang at Swat.
What they would be like, what they'd major in, etc. I am thinking of
attempting this bizarre task, in short story format, over the summer,
or in the fall. I, being only a freshman, am not going to be able to
tap fully into the vast realm of Swarthmore legend and folklore, so sme
nifty ideas for characters might not occur to me. THEREFORE, I am
asking, appealing to you, the SWIL community, to in your spare moments,
(both of them), give me any thoughts you might have, on who wuld be
what. I'll check this file periodically, and who knows, maybe something
will turn up in BEM next year!
                                Thanx a lot,
                                         JD

I'll start things out:

Sally would be a psych major, Peppermint patty a women's studies major
and on the Rugby team, and Marcie would be the Rugby manager, and
always call her professors 'Sir.'
Schroeder studies under P.G.S, majoring in Music, Frieda is trying to
hide her cat from Cigus, and Linus is a Phil major, and yes, he still
has his blanket.
Pig-pen would be either a bio or an archaeology major.  (Ahh, smell
that bouquet - Pompeii, 2 A.D.)

ahem.   i believe LUCY is the psych major as well as being a prominent
member of the football team.
True, Lucy is a psych major, but she is too intellectual and refined to
play rugby. But now, instead of teasing Charlie Brown with a football,
she leads him on sexually, then pulls away.

Actually, Sally must be majoring in either physics or engineering, and
I'd think Marcie would be a History (honors) with a minor in Math

I notice everyone is staying away from C.B. himself.  I think he'd be
one of those folk who change their majors every six months -- even at
19, he's _still_ wishy-washy.  He'd also work in an anonymous McCabe
job, and live in Willets, and hate every minute of it, but not have
enough backbone to speak up and do something about it.  Also, PEANUTS
would now add a new character -- Chuck's roommate.  Interesting concept
there...  What kind of roommate would he have?

The same one he had when he went to camp one summer - we never saw his
face, and all he ever said to poor Charlie Brown was, "Shut up, and
leave me alone!"
