Field Notes: Tantalizing Temperature Fluctuations Edition

Bwog Staff 1

field notes
nobody in bwog rushed a sorority this year but somebody rushed cumb - what does this say about us
not all field notes will be weather-themed we promise
some people's weekends were too hot (hot damn) (is this joke too old)
we're just impressed by the recent degree of temp variation - it's like a statistics prof is trying to make a really obvious example
we're like that kid in that one weird children's book who always wants it to be summer when it's winter and winter when it's summer

the next campus protest: leave our coffee alone
we are appalled. we are aghast.
we don't have enough money to deal with this
what next? will we have to start relying exclusively on the dining halls for coffee?
