The victim then re-entered his apartment and the other party allegedly left, only to re­ turn with five other individuals, according to the sheriff's office.

1 ••• 10 THE ITHACAN THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 2000 Clur VTew Show you're responsible Friday is D-Day. It is the day that the college has been preparing for since the fall. It is the last day of classes, the day formerly known as Fountain Day. What happens on this day is up to the students - all students, not just seniors. It has been a time normally reserved for consuming large amounts of alcohol, rejoicing in the end of schoolwork, and a time to let loose and party. This year, college administrators put their feet down. Fortunately, they decided not to eliminate Fountain Day altogether, but lnstead moved it to kick-off Senior Week. The logic behind this move is simple: It is a time for seniors to rejoice together. Last year Fountain Day got way out of hand. Compared to the behavior of underclassmen, the ' seniors did not come off looking too bad. It was activities outside of the Academic Quad that contributed to a host of unforeseen problems.
