I hear the chalk drawing on the Grinder is of the soon-to-be-given Ring. How cool is that?

LOL I am in stitches here. They even pushed their Plebe buddy out in a wheel chair to help. Thats the way to stick together C/O 2010!! Hope they got some sleep during classes. Probably won't be any sleep the rest of the week-end. What a hoot.

Poor Plebe.... Had to hobble his way thru the it session.....

Just an fyi kinda thing JRH - Part of the Spirit mission is to the C/O 2007. The drawing in the grinder is of their new ring. Three tons of chalk dust probably floated all the way to NYC. LOL

Compliments to the Ring Artist(s) - a very nice drawing - bet the senior class appreciated that.

Was this an entire class thing? There do not seem to be that many people out there.

Looks like the two photos of the ring were taken this morning after last night's Charmin party. They were probably all locked up in the ship's hold by that time. There seems to be some real artistic talent at KP this year. The ring had to impress the Seniors and the way the Charmin was placed in the trees is alittle art deco I think. Maybe a little Picaso thrown in there.

Yes, the entire class was involved in several spirit missions. Drawing the Ring was one of the Spirit Missions. Apparently, the class had approval to TP one tree on the square, but some folks on the TP spirit committee carried that mission to a far grander extent than planned or approved. They ended up covering every building and tree from the square to the barracks, academic buildings, and even the library and everything in between! The plebe class had to clean up what they could reach, which was only a small part of what is out there.

Whoops...just read the other thread and saw that it was the entire class - can't wait to see if there is any communication night or this Sunday!

Good point about the calls, but have not heard that phone privelages were taken away. They are lucky because the senior class will be away from the campus for the ring dance etc.
