Woody Woo Pool Party

Today marked the annual Woody Woo Senior Post-Thesis Pow-Wow. At 4:30 pm, our favorite policy wonks jumped, slid, even tentatively tip-toed into the cold waters of the Fountain of Freedom (so aptly named, right?) After giving them massive bear hugs, we pulled aside a few giddy seniors for comment.Complete the sentence: Jumping into the fountain was like..."Completing the polar bear plunge." - Gracie HimmelsteinAny bizarre thesis rituals or mantras?"I didn't shave for two and half weeks." - Eddie SkolnickWhat were your thoughts one week ago, as you were entering crunch time?"I didn't have any thoughts...I don't know. The past two weeks were a blur to me. It's like a vortex in time." - Nicole PhanSo when did you finally begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel?"Not until I gave my thesis to Pequod for binding, seven hours before it was due." - Pauline NdambukiWhat are you doing tonight to celebrate?"Preparing for a job interview." - Eddie SkolnickCheck out a video of the festivities below:Video courtesy of Ellis Liang '15.
