A glimpse into the "Ivory Tower" - The online community at Swarthmore College is abuzz with reflections, debates, insults and demands for revenge prompted by the recent tragedies.

(Swarthmore was tied with Amherst as the number one liberal arts college in the country according to U.S. World and News Report.)
