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
