...the Date Auction. Moreover, stein clubs have become themed with a release of a publicity video preceding the weekly event. To keep away unwanted dinner guests, impromptu pantless dinners take place, building House solidarity and leading to hilarious awkward moments. New traditions keep sprouting up every year. For instance, the polar bear run has become an annual favorite and is usually announced by the ghost of Charles Eliot. Last year, Eliot pranked Adams House by "borrowing" their video game machine...

But most residents’ suffering will be rewarded with n+1 duplex suites in New Quincy in their junior and senior years. Senior quads feature immense common rooms that are ideal for parties and many of which are furnished with bars left behind by previous occupants. You’ll also save a lot of money on pest control.
