A college student horses around and breaks a campus water fountain.

Possible reactions: Run like hell; deny eyewitness accounts to campus authorities; call home and cry to Mom that it was an accident and the police were mean.

At Grinnell College: Offending student tapes a note on the broken fountain with his name and phone number. "I broke it. I'm sorry."

What in the name of social utopia is in the water over at Grinnell?
