Wattie ’06, who has attended Pacelli’s classes twice a week since the beginning of the year, says she likes Pacelli’s “quirky, random anecdotes” and the way he offers advice.“Gene is very attentive to everyone,” says Wattie. “He doesn’t just focus on the good people; he helps everyone modify the poses to their body types.”BENDING...

O’Connor ’06, co-chair of the Environmental Action Committee, agreed that there was room for improvement, citing the large amounts of recyclable items that were found in dumpsters in the annual random rubbish sampling by the Resource Efficiency Program (REP). “That particularly showed that we’re still throwing out a lot of materials that we need to be recycling,” she said.
