I came back to Tufts a day early to find a bunch of activists in the Stratton lounge. This picture was taken after an intense game of tag (as evidenced by the upturned couches and cushions).

One of the big events on campus this semester was Bill Clinton speaking at this year's Fares Lecture. Unfortunately most people who wanted tickets didn't get them the first day. This led to fear that if you didn't get in line early the next day, you wouldn't get tickets. A bunch of us fencers camped out on the bridge at Dowling Hall from 5AM til they opened at 9, it was really really cold and windy. You can see the size of the line that formed behind us.

Myself, Matt, Lee, and Tim, delirious with excitement and lack of sleep, with our Clinton tickets.
Incidentaly, they increased ticket avaialability and you could walked in at 1PM and gotten tickets.

Clinton wasn't the only great speaker to come to campus this semester, Michael Moore spoke to a packed house in Pearson 104 in April. He really worked with the audience well and if you aren't familiar with his work, I suggest you check him out.

Yeah, you like that? If you look closely in the highlighted area you can see the tip of my blade (I'm on the right) about to land on the leg of the UMass fencer.

This is what happens when you put a very heavy piece of machinery on a flat-bed that's too small to handle it. Thankfully the guy that was inside was ok, but the traffic at the world's worst intersection was made worse, if thats possible.
