Tonight, when the clock strikes midnight, the students of Columbia will partake in their ceremonial transformation from stressed out college students into primal animals. Some may say that they hate this tradition, but there’s no doubt that the best way to relieve some stress is yelling at the top of your lungs. Just think about it—it would be even worse if you didn’t know it was coming! This was the reality for some of our staff during their first Primal Scream, and we share a few of their thoughts when they lost their Primal Scream v-card.
- “I forgot about it, but I was right across from Beta house… They didn’t.”
- “I was studying in Brooks lounge (study lounge in the Barnard quad…population of the room is almost 100% first-years) and when the clock struck 12 everyone in the room thought someone was dying cause the scream was so loud and unexpected. but because of bwog I was a know it all bitch and was like ‘it’s primal scream, duh'”
- “I was studying in Elliott and heard sporadic screaming in the dorm/outside until 12:30. My scream was subpar. I’ll do better this semester.”
