Throw on that rubber, and Happy Valentine's Day! Students made this Hallmark holiday count towards a good cause last Tuesday night at Kittredge Dining Hall during dinner from 5 to 7 p.m. Free condoms were1 given out as part of the weekly Soup and Bread dinners in honor of this week's Valentine-relate- d theme, "Soup and Sex."
