In keeping with its reputation as a hotbed of preppies, the latest yearbook is now available at Hampden-Sydney College. It's from 1981. "In the truest prep fashion, the book arrived fashionably late," said Tom Robinson, the college's news and information officer. Hampden-Sydney, one of the last remaining all-male schools in the country, thrives as a bastion of Virginia prep.

The dress code is khakis, sport shirts bearing the Lacoste Izod alligator and Sperry Topsiders, well-known white-soled boat shoes. So it was only fitting that the 1981 edition of Kaleidoscope came not only three years after graduation, but covered in madras plaid and bearing the title, "The Official Preppy Yearbook." "The wait has proved worthwhile, for showcased in this madras-bound yearbook is Hampden-Sydney life as it is meant to be," Robinson said. The cover is styled after "The Official Preppy Handbook" and the yearbook's introduction is written by the handbook's author, Lisa Birnbach. In her introduction, Ms. Birnbach praises Hampden-Sydney as "a College that time forgot, still a breeding ground for the right boys, with beautiful surroundings, and southern gentility.

"There students can still actually study the liberal arts because they will be able to mooch off their parents for the rest of their lives." The cover inset features caricatures of H-SC President Josiah Bunting III and his wife, Diana, and Brooks Brothers' golden fleece logo. Ms. Birnbach spoke of the Buntings in her introduction. For unknown reasons, the 1981 yearbook staff "just dropped the ball." When college officials learned of it toward the end of the school year, it was too late to complete the work.

Hampden–Sydney College (H–SC) is a private liberal arts college for men in Hampden Sydney, Virginia, United States. Founded in 1775, it is the oldest privately chartered college in the Southern United States, the tenth-oldest college in the US, the last college founded before the American Declaration of Independence, and the oldest of the four-year, all-male liberal arts colleges remaining in the United States. Hampden–Sydney College is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register, and is affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA).

A product that will make a difference!
Color: White, Size: King (Pack of 2)
These king-size pillows are incredibly comfortable and supportive. They are soft enough to feel luxurious, yet they provide great support for my head and neck throughout the night. The king size is perfect for a larger bed and gives the bed a full, hotel-like appearance. The pillows keep their shape well and fluff up nicely after use. I've been sleeping much better since getting them and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality, comfortable pillows.

Soft...but fluffy and tall
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 2)
I've only had these pillows for about a week. They are a great quality pillow. The cover is soft and seems well made. My only complaint is that they are VERY full pillows. If you're tall with broader shoulders, you'll probably love them. If you're shorter with a smaller frame you will probably feel like your head is too high and your neck at a weird angle (my problem). There seemed to be mixed reviews about softness....I would consider these a nice medium pillow. Soft filling but firm enough that your head doesn't sink to the bed. Definitely NOT a down-like pillow, so if that's what you're looking for, this is not for you.

Soft, fluffy and surprisingly comfortable
Color: White, Size: Queen (Pack of 2), Color: White, Size: Queen (Pack of 2)
I really liked these pillows. I tried to show different things in my photos because I wanted people to see the details: the design, how fluffy they are, and how full and thick they actually look. They are so full that the pillowcase even looks tight once you put it on, which I actually loved because they look luxurious and well-filled. At first glance they look very thick and high, but once you lay down they feel soft and fluffy instead of hard. They adjust comfortably and feel very cozy whether you’re sleeping, relaxing, or even reading before bed. I think they offer a really good balance because they feel supportive without being stiff. Of course, pillow preference is very personal—some people like lower pillows and others like higher ones—but for someone who likes fuller pillows that are still soft and comfortable, these are great. They are spacious, cozy, and feel like a very good purchase overall. I honestly don’t have any complaints so far. Definitely happy with them.
