As of right now, they’re still saying, “Hi,” to everyone they see. Keep your ears open, because freshpeople are a feast of audible delights:
Mingling on the John Jay green:
“I’m pretty sure that every time I’ve had champagne at Christmas it was just sparkling grape juice.”
“There’s also prosecco, that’s Italian”
Group of youngish guys licking popsicles outside Morton Williams:
“First we pregamed, then we gamed, and now we post game.”
Some bright young things:
“Happy birthday! Are you turning 18 or 19?!”
Freshgirl to a security guard:
“Oh my god, I can’t believe Convocation is canceled! That is such an important thing, I really wanted to hear my Deans speak and say, ‘Welcome to columbia, we’re so glad you’re here! But Dean Moody-Adams quit, so I think that might have something to do with it.”

@Post-Game is what happens when you don’t score.
@heh ” I really wanted to hear my Deans speak and say, ‘Welcome to columbia, we’re so glad you’re here!”
Hate to break it to you but the odds were less than 50:50 that you’d hear that. I watched an entire convocation once and not a single speaker actually said ‘welcome to columbia’. It was amusing.
@Anonymous I love minging!
