Carnegie Mellon has a tradition of taking two days off in April to celebrate the rites of spring, which takes the form of a buggy race called "
Sweepstakes." It's the one sport we really excel in, largely because it involves stuffing very small women into very small vehicles designed painstakingly by nerds. My student Catherine Rodriguez is a buggy driver this year. She's very small. Be safe, Cal.
Carnival also involves werewolf sightings (see Fig. 1)

Fig. 2. Not a werewolf. |
David Holcomb (Fig. 2) and I may not be werewolves, but like them we track our prey by smell, and so discovered a huge campus-wide barbeque, free to anyone with a card.
Good stuff. A good day.
my freshman year of SOD - drama didn't get those days off. Kind of a bummer.
