<p>Theatre AND Debate? Yes, certainly. One of my friends is on the debate team, he has little time for anything else, with all the practices/research/travel/etc he is required to do. The drama folks are also very busy, we have around 7-8 “official” shows a year (Current Season: <a href=“http://www.whitman.edu/theatre/season/index.html)%5B/url%5D”>http://www.whitman.edu/theatre/season/index.html)</a>, and plenty more one acts, contests, “lunch boxes” (quick shows over lunch) and so on. I’m running the light board for As You Like It, and will be giving up at least four hours a day for the next week until opening night. The actors have been working on it for weeks.</p>
<p>I offer these as partial counters to the nothing going on stereotype:</p>

<p>As for me, personally, weekends are time to recharge: sleep in, get some work done, and decompress from the week that just ended. We have live music every Friday night, and now that we’re in the better weather lots of rugby/lacrosse/frisbee games going on right outside my window. This particular weekend we’ve got the Renaissance Faire, a rock climbing competition and a couple of other things I’ll be missing because I’m BUSY WITH ALL THE STUFF I DO.</p>
