Emily Bruce '07 spent her time at Williams running the world (Co-Directing the [[Elizabethans]]), tutoring for [[Writing Workshop]], singing in [[Concert Choir]] and [[Chamber Choir]], taking voice lessons, and being a history major. Now, she thinks she is going off to study history at the University of Minnesota, but Mama Duck is obviously needed more at Williams and must stay to take care of her babies.</div>

<p>07ecb: making Willipedia international</p>
<hr />
<div>[[Category:Students]] [[Category:Class of 2006]]<br />
Mr. McDonough is currently teaching Latin, Greek, and similar subjects to high school students in Kent, Connecticut. He also coaches sports he doesn't play, plays the organ at Mass, and accompanies musical theatre productions. The electric organ in his apartment makes a good conversation starter. He politely ignores the young (too young!) women constantly throwing themselves at his feet, because that is just plain wrong. Besides, let's face it: most of his social life is still at Williams. <br />
<br />
Taught a notable [[Free University]] course on Latin. Likes to play [[Snow Bocce]].<br />
<br />
Rang the [[Thompson Chapel Bells]]- Most frequently played: Respighi, Preludio and L'Usignuolo from ''The Birds''; Handel, March from ''Occasional Oratorio''; medleys from ''Mary Poppins'' and ''The Sound of Music''; Copland, Hoe-Down from ''Rodeo'', ''Singing in the Rain'', ''Let it Snow'', and ''White Christmas'' (when appropriate, and sometimes when not appropriate); assorted [[Elizabethans]] and [[Choir]] music; hymns<br />
<br />
Is possibly the coolest person alive, and his pitch isn't bad either. (No, really. Not a cause for complaint AT ALL...) Frequently seen striding across campus or leading throngs of less musical people in song, Joe is a hero among men. His dream is to become a [http://www.eco-action.org/defend/gifs/squirrel.jpeg flying squirrel].<br />
<br />
And he still believes that Jesus rose from the dead.<br />
<br />
Claimed middle names: "D'Lavish Whoopification," "D'Exciting Revelry," "Defender of Innocents," "D'Through Composed" (or "Durchkomponiert"), "Dangerous Rhode Island Specimen," "Distraction Extraordinaire," "Decadent Senior," "Decadence in a Bowl," "Desperately Holding Up the Candle of Literacy During the Dark Ages," "D'Employed," "Delightfully Surreal and Irish," "Driver's License, Has A," Not "Derelict," "D'AIM bot," "Dignified."</div>

<hr />
<div>[[Category:Groups]]<br />
The Elizabethans is nominally a madrigal [[:Category:Groups|group]], but in truth they don't sing too many madrigals. They're really a group that sings an almost completely non-pop repertoire, focusing on anything that they find beautiful, intriguing, or humorous from the wide world of music outside of a beatbox.<br />
<br />
Founded in Winter Study 1993, the 'bethans (as they call themselves) perform several times a year and tour New England every spring break. They are known for their frequently challenging repertoire, their Renaissance performing garb, and their unfathomable obsession with sheep. CD titles include "The Food of Love," "Live From Albert Square," "Madrigal Inferno," and their latest, "Set Me as a Seal." <br />
<br />
Check out The Elizabethans' [http://www.elizabethans.org/ web site] for pictures, sample tracks, concert dates, and other information.<br />

<br />
Is possibly the coolest person alive, and his pitch isn't bad either. Frequently seen striding across campus or leading throngs of less musical people in song, Joe is a hero among men. His dream is to become a [http://www.eco-action.org/defend/gifs/squirrel.jpeg flying squirrel].<br />
<br />
And he still believes that Jesus rose from the dead.<br />

<p>07ecb: added picky pedantic comment</p>
<hr />
<div>{{Talk_page}}<br />
<br />
==Editing and formatting==<br />
<br />
Ok, can we follow some sort of format here. I propose this one:<br />
<br />
'''Name of Restaraunt'''<br />
<br />
Review....................<br />
..........................<br />
..........................<br />
..........................<br />
..........................<br />
''- Person who wrote review (if you want)''<br />
<br />
Review 2.................<br />
.........................<br />
..........................<br />
..........................<br />
..........................<br />
''- Person who wrote review (if you want)''<br />
<br />
If you like this, then try - Restaraunt B, Restaraunt C.<br />
<br />
Address.<br />
Phone Number.<br />
<br />
If I get a go ahead from a few people, I won't mind editing them myself to fit in the format. Or add some changes to this if you feel like it - Rahul<br />
<br />
Even though the page currently spills into a dialog between reviewers now, I think it would be best to fight this trend rather than institutionalize it. Willipedia talk pages are for dialogue, content pages should be synthesized consensuses. If we just make this page an ever-growing, unsynthesized list of reviews, it will balloon to a length and style that will make its information hard to extract. Instead, Rahul, go ahead and rewrite what's here in the way you think concisely represents what's out there.

<div>[[Category:Groups]]<br />
The Elizabethans is nominally a madrigal [[:Category:Groups|group]], but in truth they don't sing too many madrigals. They're really a group that sings an almost completely non-pop repertoire, focusing on anything that they find beautiful, intriguing, or humorous from the wide world of music outside of a beatbox.<br />
<br />
Founded in Winter Study 1993, the 'bethans (as they call themselves) are the unofficial official [[a cappella]] group of the [[Odd quad|Odd Quad]]. They perform several times a year and tour New England every spring break. They are known for their quirkiness, their frequently challenging repertoire, their Renaissance performing garb, and their unfathomable obsession with sheep. CD titles include "The Food of Love," "Live From Albert Square," "Madrigal Inferno," and their latest, "Set Me as a Seal." <br />

<p>07ecb: cuddling</p>
<hr />
<div>Dave Letzler '06 (also known as "David" to his family and significant other, Katherine Bram '08 of [[Brandeis University]]) is a senior residing in [[Fitch]]. He hails from Baldwin, NY, a town on Long Island. He was a prominent member of a number of campus organizations, including [[College Bowl]], [[Williams Trivia]], [[Elizabethans]], [[Chess Club]], [[Bridge]], the [[Literary Review]], and at times the Williams [[Democrats]]. He was also a member of [[Deviants]] from 2003-2006.<br />
<br />
== College Bowl Career Highlights ==<br />
Team captain for the three years, Letzler was the dominant player on the team for pop culture throughout his whole career, thus making him their best [[TRASH]] player. He was probably the strongest all-around literature player during that time, though [[David Rosenblum '03]] had more depth in many areas at the start of his career, and [[David Mathias '08]] has, at times, demonstrated superior breadth. He was otherwise a solid generalist, excepting the applied sciences.<br />
<br />
As a freshman, Letzler played in five tournaments in the 2002-2003 competition year. The first was [[TRASH]] Regionals at BU, where he led a small team in scoring and a 4-9 record against the steep and crusty competition, correctly answering questions about the Man Show Juggies, Pussy Galore, Tiffany's appearance in Playboy, and Shaft in Africa. He played a supporting role in Williams's 3rd-place finish in BU's [[Puppy Chow]] tournament, behind Harvard and Yale, and during the team's poor performance at [[Penn Bowl]], he managed to get a game-winning tossup on the Mustang Ranch. He, [[Daniel Klein '06]], and [[Evan Bick '06]] each placed in the top ten in scoring at [[NAQT]] Sectionals in February, earning a Division II Nationals berth. As Bick was unable to attend that tournament, Klein and Letzler joined captain Rosenblum at Nationals, where they came in 26th of 32 teams.<br />
<br />
With the departure of leading scorer Rosenblum, Letzler took over effective control of the team his sophomore year. The team only attended four tournaments, coming in a disappointing 5th at Puppy Chow, with Letzler leading the team in scoring, before having a surprising 10th-place finish in a 50-team field at that year's [[Penn Bowl]] with a short-handed team also including Klein and [[Brian Hirshman '06]], defeating [[MIT]] and [[Brandeis University]], the latter through a fortuitous sequence of events involving the double-slit experiment and Will Smith. However, the team was steadily beaten at NAQT Regionals that year, and despite high scores from Bick, Letzler, and Klein at [[CBI]] Regionals, the team only came in third.<br />
<br />
2004-2005 saw an upturn in the team's fortunes. With Letzler returning as captain, the team picked up a number of committed freshmen. Letzler, teamed with [[Brian Munroe '07]] came in fourth at Brandeis's Junior Bird, and led a team including Hirshman, [[Christopher Paci '08]], and [[Jason Kohn '08]] to a second-place finish at Harvard's COTKU Mirror. Letzler won his first neg prize at [[TRASH]] Regionals, though he finished second in playoff scoring. Playing with leading scorer Mathias, Munroe, and Hirshman, Letzler captained the team to a sixth-place finish at Yale's [[Bulldogs Over Broadway]], tragically forgetting John Foster Dulles's first name in a loss to [[Rutgers-Newark]], and forgetting the Ottoman Emperor Selim in a loss to [[Columbia]]. After captaining the team to a fifth-place finish at that year's [[Penn Bowl]] (after having stayed up the previous night to play [[Williams Trivia]] as the second-place remote team Penn15), a team composed of Mathias, Klein, Letzler, and Hirshman qualified for [[NAQT]] Nationals in Division I and won [[CBI]] Regionals, where Letzler placed second in scoring overall, his best individual performance to date. His teams finished 19th of 32 at [[NAQT]] Nationals and 7th of 16 at [[CBI]] Nationals.<br />
<br />
In 2005-2006, Letzler, with Paci and Bick, finished 4th at Brandeis's Heinrich Boll mirror, placing in the top ten in scoring. He also captained a team including Mathias and [[Zachary Thomas '08]] to a victory at Harvard's mirror of WIT, captained a team with Thomas, Hirshman, and [[Allison Smith '07]] to victory at the MLK mirror, and one with Thomas, Paci, and Hirshman to a second-place finish at ACF Fall, in which the team beat Harvard's A team twice (their only losses in the tournament). Most notably, he revived the team's annual TRASH tournament, [[Lemur Bowl]], in late October, which he directed and edited. After leading Williams through Regionals in ACF and NAQT, second only to full [[Brown]] and [[Harvard]] squads in the Northeast, Letzler took Williams to their first ACF National, placing 11th, and helped capture the Undergradute title at NAQT Nationals, ending his Williams College Bowl career.<br />
<br />
== Trivia Highlights ==<br />
As a freshman, Letzler formed the [[Williams Trivia]] team "Mortal Kombat Intelligence Skwad," including [[Laura Effinger-Dean '06]], [[Rachel S. Selinsky '06]], [[Samuel Clapp '06]], and [[Benjamin Cohen '06]]. This team came in fifth, and won the Frosh team prize, as they did the next semester as "Mortal Kumquat," where they finished third. Merging with remnants of the Part IV and Trotsky victors, they became "Mortal Wombat" and won the contest in January '04, running a well-received contest that May (though it was beset by some techinical problems and the need to write a last-minute Hour Bonus). The next semester, he and the College Bowl team played as Penn15 from a freshman dorm in UPenn, along with a friend of [[Max Gutman '08]] who lived there, taking a surprise second-place finish. The following semester, remnants of Wombat and Penn15 merged to form "Gratuitous Use of the World 'Belgium'", winners of that semester's contest.<br />
<br />
In addition to writing roughly a third of the on-air questions used in the Mortal Wombat contest, Letzler was responsible for organizing the mini-audios of "Movie Music" and "Video Game Music" from the Wombat contest, assembled by Effinger-Dean, as well as writing the "Pi" Audio. He was also a prime contributor to that contest's "Animation," "Music," and "76" bonuses.<br />
<br />
For the "Belgium" contest, Letzler was the primary writer and assembler of the "Hello/Goodbye" audio and the "Just Say No" video bonus, as well as providing assembly services for a classical audio. He was the main writer and assembler of the "Sheep" bonus as well as the helming the team effort on the "TV" super.<br />
<br />
For the "Awesome Sauce" contest, he wrote the guest "Dave" Super Bonus, and somehow ended up on the winning team again while playing with his girlfriend and his senior suite ([[Brian Hirshman '06]], [[Dan Burns '06]], and [[Johannes Pulst-Korenberg '06]] (whose sister also joined in))<br />
<br />

<br />
Dave is a cuddler extraordinaire. It's one of his nicest qualities, which are many.<br />

A cappella
2006-04-12T02:47:19Z
<p>07ecb: a cappella has two p's. I don't know how to change the title. help, smart Willipedia people!</p>
<hr />
<div>{{stub}}<br />
<br />
There are seven a cappella groups at Williams, which does not include other [[singing]] groups that may perform many pieces a cappella. Many Williams students have been cried that this seems like many for a college of 2000, yet it is [[Amherst]] that claims the nickname of the "singing college" [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amherst_College#Amherst_trivia].<br />
<br />
The seven are:<br />
<br />
'''Female-only:''' [[Ephoria]], [[Accidentals]]<br><br />
'''Male-only:''' [[Octet]], [[Springstreeters]]<br><br />
'''Co-ed:''' [[Good Question]], [[Ephlats]]<br><br />
'''Special interest:''' [[Elizabethans]] (co-ed)<br />
<br />
<br />
== Traditions ==<br />
<br />
Here are some traditions of Williams a cappella in general (specific group traditions are on group pages).<br />
<br />
=== Auditions ===<br />
<br />
Because of the number of a cappella groups that all wish to recruit primarily freshmen, at around the same time (at the start of the fall, starting with the [[Purple Key Fair]]), auditions for all a cappella groups are usually held in two weeks. Audition times overlap, but applicants choose time slots and are given enough choices that they may try for all the groups they wish.<br />
<br />
When applicants to groups are called back to multiple groups, they rank their order of preference of the groups they are trying for. If accepted by multiple groups, this ranking will determine which they join. It is unknown for a person to be a member of more than one a cappella group concurrently.<br />
<br />
<!-- === Singing In New Members ===<br />
<br />
It is tradition to notify new inductees of their membership by "singing them in." In this ritual, the current members of the group taking them will take efforts to find a time that the person will be in a certain place, often their [[entry]], and sometimes while they're asleep. The whole group will then gather outside the door, or otherwise near the person, and sing an often-traditional song of their choosing. When the entry of the inductee also contains a rejectee, efforts are taken to ensure that the latter is not at home. --><br />
<br />
== Songs Groups Should Do ==<br />
<br />
Here's what the masses are demanding from Williams a cappella. Add songs it would be cool to hear. If applicable, include what group should do it, who should solo, link to an arrangement, encouraging words, etc.<br />
<br />
<!-- please alphabetize! !--><br />
:'''Fat Bottom Girls''' by Queen. Springstreeters or Octet.<br />
:'''Lady Marmalade''' (''Moulin Rouge'' version. Elizabethans.) [While it would be interesting if the 'Bethans did this song, it should be noted that the Ephlats performed the "Moulin Rouge" version this fall.]<br />
:'''My Heart Will Go On''' Streeters or Octet.<br />
:'''Just A Friend''' by Biz Markie. Springstreeters or GQ<br />
<br />
== Songs Groups Should Never Do/Stop Doing ==<br />
<br />
Yeah, maybe that five-minute guitar solo won't ''really'' sound too hot as a human voice ensemble. Here are the songs people want to warn groups away from, for whatever reasons.<br />
<br />

Cluster Pick 2006
2006-03-04T06:07:49Z
<p>07ecb: /* 2007 */ pick 56</p>
<hr />
<div>This page attempts to provide a mechanism for students to coordinate their cluster picks in 2006. The basic idea is that people with high picks can let others know where they intend to pick so that lower ranked students can focus their energies accordingly. Groups may also try to coordinate on specific houses. Please edit this page by inserting your group number, the names of the people in it, and likely selection at the appropriate spot. <br />
<br />
Add more # symbols to increase the number of the list until it gets to yours, making sure to put something (such as -fill in-) on every line you add. Note that if you put a big string of # signs without writing something on each line, the numbers will all be printed on top of each other and no one will know what pick you have.<br />

Be aware that intimidation or manipulation of any kind is not allowed. It almost became a major issue in the co-op draw and almost resulted in the invalidation of some of the pick groups.</div>

The OCC fellowships give students the resources needed to carry out virtually any internship. Applicants submit a proposal, describing the internship in as much detail as possible. The keys to a winning application are including as much detail as possible (so the committee knows you’re serious and qualified) and making connections to both past experience and long-term career goals.<br />
Grant recipients receive a check at the beginning of the summer and are expected to use it to cover expenses related to the internship (housing, food, transportation). They are also expected to submit a 1-2-page write-up to Ron Gallagher before September 1 after the internship.<br />

The goal of the Gaudino fellowship is to plan and carry out an independent project designed to fulfill the motto of “uncomfortable learning†– being in an environment that challenges one’s beliefs and/or sensibilities. The goal is to not only learn something, but reflect on the experience. Proposals are due at the end of September and must include a specific itinerary and budget. The key to winning the Gaudino is to demonstrate that what you are doing will take you so far out of your element that it will be a highly transformative experience.<br />
Grant recipients enroll in [http://www.williams.edu/admin/registrar/winterstudy/courseinfo/courses05.html#PSCI023 PSCI 023]. However, after that, you are pretty much on your own to take the project wherever you want.<br />
<br />
=== [http://www.williams.edu/Geoscience/Interess.html Lauren Interess Adventure Fellowship] ===<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:ddethier@williams.edu David Dethier]<br />
Endowed by the Interess family in memory of Lauren Interess '98, the fellowship provides $1500 to fund a field or travel project related to earth sciences. <br />
<br />
Lauren loved geosciences and the outdoors, and found adventure in all sorts of places. She always sought out projects and outdoor research experiences, and the Interess Fellowship exists to allow students in our department to follow her lead and their hearts.

=== [http://www.williams.edu/admin/deanfac/summer_research.php Summer Research Program for Division I and II Students] ===<br />
* '''Deadline''': March 1<br />
* '''Eligible''': Current first-years, sophomores, juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': $3,400 plus room (but not board)<br />
* '''Time''': Summer (10 weeks)<br />
* '''Number of awards''': 20<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:John.P.Gerry@williams.edu John Gerry], [http://www.williams.edu/admin/deanfac/ Associate Dean of the Faculty]<br />
<br />
Many students look for summer work over Spring Break, so we hope to announce funded projects before students leave on March 17. In order to meet this goal, please submit a brief application in hard copy to the Dean of Faculty Office by Wednesday, March 1. The application should contain the following information:<br />
<br />
* Name of faculty sponsor and department/program<br />
* Name and class year of student<br />
* Starting date and number of weeks for the research project (10 weeks maximum, but shorter periods are fine, in which case the amount of the stipend will be calculated accordingly, at $340/week; the stipend level assumes a full-time work week).<br />
* Housing required? On-campus lodging is available from June 12 thru August 18 and we will pay for this as well. We don’t pay for student meals, but they can enroll in an economical meal plan with dining services.<br />
* Project Title and Project Description<br />
* Qualifications of the student for this project<br />
* Is this request for a backup or supplement to another grant or fellowship? <br />
<br />
Student participation in summer faculty research projects must be substantial and significant so as to provide authentic involvement in academic research. Projects comprised largely of clerical or background work performed by students will likely not be funded. There is no “residency requirement†per se, but it is certainly preferred that students spend a substantial amount of their time on campus, as one of the hopes of this initiative is to foster a student summer research climate on campus. There are clearly cases where research is best conducted elsewhere, in which case we ask that faculty sponsors be in a position to monitor the off-site research. Also, please note that current seniors are ineligible for this program.<br />
<br />
This program is not to be confused with the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship Program (MMUFP) or the Williams Undergraduate Research Fellowship (WCURF), both of which also support student summer research and are run by Molly Magavern out of the Office for Special Academic Programs.<br />

=== Charles W. Hufford Memorial Fellowship ===<br />
* '''Eligible''': Juniors<br />
* '''Amount''': Varies, usually around $500<br />
* '''Time''': Summer-School Year<br />
* '''Administrator''': [mailto:Cheryl.L.Shanks@williams.edu Professor Cheryl Shanks], [http://www.williams.edu/PoliSci/site/nav.php?c=faculty&u=shanks.htm Political Science Department]<br />
* '''Past Winner''': (2005) [[Alan Cordova '06]]<br />
<br />
Established in 1988 by the family, friends and classmates of Charles W. Hufford ’89, the Charles Hufford Memorial Fellowship is awarded to a member of the junior class to support independent research or work broadly related to the field of political economy or political science during the summer before the senior year. The purpose of the fellowship is to enable a Williams undergraduate to pursue an imaginative project with prospects for personal enrichment and expansion of educational horizons. One fellowship will be awarded this year.<br />
<br />
Students wishing to apply for the fellowship should prepare a description of their project together with a brief estimated budget. The proposal should include a statement of purpose, a description of the project, and the names of two Williams faculty members who can be called for references. The proposal should be approximately 1000 words. The statement should explain how the project will enrich and expand the applicant’s educational perspectives. The budget should briefly outline the anticipated expenses for the project.<br />
There is no requirement that applicants have a particular major. However, as stated above, the proposed subject and its purpose must be related – broadly interpreted – to the field of political science or political economy. The Hufford Fellow will be expected to submit a written report on the project, its achievements and consequences, at the end of the fellowship.<br />

<br />
Supported by an endowment for Asian Studies established by family and friends in memory of James A. Linen III, Class of 1934, the Department of Asian Studies offers a limited number of grants to assist Williams College undergraduates (including rising juniors, rising sophomores, and rising first-years) in traveling to South, Southeast, and East Asia during the summer for educational purposes. Note that, for the purposes of these grants, “Asia†refers to South, Southeast, and East Asia, defined as those parts of the continent east of the Khyber Pass and south and east of the Tian Shan Mountains and the Gobi Desert.<br />
Proposals might include (but are not limited to) conducting research for an honor's thesis; pursuing other kinds of independent research under the direction of a member of the Williams College faculty; participating in an intensive language training program in Asia at the advanced or intermediate level; etc. Students who have not studied Asian languages at Williams are also eligible to apply. Students develop individual study proposals in consultation with sponsoring faculty members, and these are evaluated by the department in the spring. Several awards are given each year, in amounts that vary depending on the proposed research. Students wishing to apply for Linen Summer Grants should contact the Asian Studies Department Chair early in the Spring semester for information about obtaining an application.<br />
<br />
The Linen Grant Selection Committee will give highest priority to funding proposals that contribute to developing a student’s scholarship in a serious and well-focused way. Proposals might include (but are not limited to) conducting research for an honor’s thesis; pursuing other kinds of independent research under the direction of a member of the Williams College faculty; participating in an intensive language training program in Asia at the advanced or intermediate level; etc. The selection committee may elect to call finalists for a brief interview. Grants will be awarded according to the merits of the proposal and the availability of funds; some projects may be offered partial funding. Please note that disbursement of grants will be through payment of invoices or reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses based on receipts. Applicants will be informed of the committee’s decision by mid April. <br />
<br />
Students who wish to be considered for Linen grants should submit the following:<br />
* A project proposal of no more than 500 words. The proposal should describe in detail the project to be undertaken. It should include an explanation of how the project fits in with the student’s present and future study plans, as well as an explanation of why this project can be most successfully undertaken only in Asia.<br />
* If the applicant is proposing an independent research project, the applicant should submit a brief letter of support from the member of the Williams faculty who has agreed to supervise the project, including a description of the project’s final product.<br />
* The names of two faculty references. The selection committee may contact references directly if the applicant is a finalist.<br />
* A detailed project budget indicating how much money is requested and the specific purposes to which it will be put. Indicate what alternative sources of funding are available, including any that have been or will be applied for.<br />

Williams offers three fellowships in support of student travel abroad during the summer following their junior year (i.e., rising seniors). Students interested in applying for these fellowships should attend the information meeting in November or December. This will be your chance to ask specific questions about the fellowships and project design. Please note that the fellowships support travel outside the United States only, and that projects must be fully designed and implemented by the students who propose them; fellowship funds may not be used to pay tuition or expenses for any organized course of study abroad. <br />
The Mary and Nathaniel M. Lawrence Memorial Fellowship, in honor of Nathaniel Lawrence, Professor of Philosophy, and his wife Mary, makes relatively modest grants to support travel projects that lead to personal development. This means that a student’s project need not have an academic or primarily educational component; suchprojects that do would likely be more appropriate for one of the other two fellowships.<br />
<br />
The Robert G. Wilmers Jr. 1990 Memorial Student Travel Abroad Fellowship honors Robert Wilmers, Jr. The fellowship’s grants are designed to support substantial projects involving foreign travel and study. Successful projects will normally involve 6 weeks or more abroad, and will present an ambitious intellectual program. <br />
<br />
The Class of 1945 Student World Fellowship is the gift of those classes whose academic careers at Williams were interrupted by World War II. These fellowships support projects of travel and study abroad that aim to increase international understanding, knowledge of and concern for other cultures, and social action that forges links among countries. The donors are especially interested in supporting projects that may form the basis for a senior thesis upon the fellows’ return, but this is not a rigid criterion. Projects must been substantial in their aims. <br />
<br />
For all summer fellowships, projects must take place outside of the United States. Projects must be independently planned and implemented. Awards are made to individual applicants only. Applications submitted by two or more students for joint projects will not be considered.<br />

The Community Scholars Project is a pilot summer program which will provide 8 students the opportunity to intern during the summer of ‘05 with a Northern Berkshire County community-based non-profit organization and develop related research and analytical skills.<br />
<br />
Students in the 8 week summer program will participate in a pre-work orientation seminar in early April (after Spring Break) before working in the local community organization of their choice from June 13th through August 5th.<br />
<br />
Participants will have informal opportunities throughout the work period to explore and discuss the meaning and relevance of their fieldwork to social and political research and policy. Students will also participate in an end-of-session symposium (during the first week of August). Each participant will be provided free college housing, a small meal plan and assistance with transportation to his/her host institution. Each student must arrange his/her internship opportunity in advance of submitting an application. Every applicant is required to consult with Sadie Miller (x2139, smiller@williams.edu) of the Community Service Office regarding placement. She will provide information on opportunities for those who need it.<br />

<br />
Each summer the Center for Environmental Studies offers limited funding to support student projects including scholarly research, career-related internships, and creative endeavors. All Williams students are eligible to apply for CES funding, regardless of major, concentration, or year(graduating seniors are not eligible). All proposals must demonstrate an environmental component, although our interpretation of "environmental" is broad.<br />
<br />
All students who accept funding from CES are expected to give a public presentation about their Summer work during the following academic year by giving a log lunch talk, a gallery exhibit, or some other public presentation. A written report of the project( 5 - 10 pages for internships; 15 - 20 pages for research projects) must be submitted in the fall, along with a 300-600 word article for the CES newsletter,"Field Notes".<br />
<br />
The maximum stipend for research, internships, and creative projects is $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work. Applications will be accepted for part-time projects, or projects taking less than 10 weeks. CES encourages students to seek funding from additional sources. In the case that partial funding is obtained elsewhere, CES will provide not more than the difference between the funding secured and $3400 for 10 weeks of full-time work.<br />

<hr />
<div>== The Williams College Climate Initiative ==<br />
<br />
Climate change is a preeminent challenge of our time. Its effects will be felt throughout the world for generations to come. Williamstown, the state of Massachusetts, and peer institutions have already set targets for greenhouse gas emission reductions. As one of the nation’s foremost institutions of higher learning, Williams College has an obligation to lead by example. '''In signing this petition, we call upon President Schapiro and the Board of Trustees to adopt a Climate Action Plan that would ensure a 10% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions by 2010, and a 20% reduction by 2015.''' The Plan would entail compiling an updated, comprehensive carbon emission inventory, laying out a framework and timeline to achieve our reduction targets, and hiring a Campus Sustainability Coordinator to facilitate the Climate Action Plan and all future sustainability projects.<br />
<br />
Sincerely,<br />
<br />
The undersigned.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''Background information:'''<br />
* Williams College is responsible for emitting 34,700 tons of carbon dioxide per year, a quarter of Williamstown’s total emissions. This is approximately 11.5 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per person at Williams College.<br />
<br />
* More than 37 colleges and universities have set an example by meeting or beating the Kyoto Protocol agreement for emissions reductions. <br />
<br />
* Williamstown has already adopted a climate action plan to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 10% percent by 2010. Williams College is a member of this community and an integral part of the town’s plan.<br />
<br />
* Natural variability alone cannot account for the recent changes in global climate. Scientific models can explain climate changes in the last 50 years only by taking into account greenhouse gas emissions attributable to humans. <br />

<div>The most games of cribbage on the Williams campus in a four-year period were probably played between the [[Fall 2001|Fall of 2001]] and the [[Spring 2005|Spring of 2005]], during which ran a continuous tournament between two students. A concise history of this semi-epic battle, complete with win-loss statistics, is collected in this article.<br />
[[Image:Cribbage500_pegging.jpg|right|thumbnail|Zach and Jonathan square off in the semi-millenial match (#500), held beachside (by [[Perry]] [[volleyball]] court).]]<br />
==Rules of the Game==<br />
There is little need for this article to enumerate the rules of Cribbage. If you do not know how to play, one of the following sites can teach you. The Williams Cribbage championship was played without the Muggins rule; otherwise all rules were standard.<br />
* [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cribbage Wikipedia Cribbage Page] Includes simple rules section.<br />
* [http://www.cribbage.org/rules/ Tournament Rules of Cribbage]<br />
<br />
==The 2001 - 2002 Season==<br />
<br />
In the [[Fall 2001|Fall of 2001]], [[Jonathan Landsman]] '05 and Zachary McArthur '05 were freshmen living together in [[East#East_3|East 3]]. In the first week of school, Jonathan noticed a cribbage board lying on the top shelf of Zach's bookshelf. "You play?" he asked. "Yes," replied Zach. "I'm looking for an opponent." So it began.<br />
<br />
Though the spectator base was still fairly small, and confined mostly to the current residents of East 3, the first year of cribbage was considered by some to be most exciting. Of all four years, the 2001-2 season featured the greatest number of changes to the frontrunner. Analysts have since speculated that this was due to the players' slow acclimation to each others' style of play, and some house rules. For example, Zach taught Jonathan the rule that five flushes are the only kind that score in the crib. He also engaged in some head games, claiming that King-7 was the most dangerous throw to your opponent's crib. Jonathan believed this garbage, until Zach's father visited and accidentally disillusioned his son's opponent.<br />
<br />
The two players also decided not to play with the optional "Muggins" rule, which penalizes players for miscounted hands. This latter decision was key in ensuring the efficiency of games, and a high game volume in future years, as Zach and Jonathan were able to play games in ten minutes before a shift, a class, a final exam, and other less important engagements. Senior year, they had reached such fluidity as to be able to watch ''Boiling Points'' and still hold down a decent game.<br />
<br />
===The 100th Game of 2001 - 2002===<br />
[[Image:Cribbage100.jpg|right|thumbnail|The first century match: Game #100 in the [[East 3]] [[common room]], 14 April [[Spring 2004|2004]].]]<br />
The hundredth game of the first year was played in the [[East 3]] common room, and received moderate publicity via an email sent 28 April 2002 to the [[East]] and [[Fayerweather]] dorms:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>That's right, today at snacks in the East 3 common room, what has been almost two semesters and one winter study in the making is finally coming to a head, when Zach and Jonathan play their 100th game of cribbage. It promises to be an exciting match, as this year has seen hands as big as 28 points, comebacks from 40-point deficits, and even a near miss at that elusive double skunk. What marvellous spectacles will Sunday's game hold? No one knows, but be sure to come to the East 3 Common Room at 10:30 for what is absolutely sure to be a milestone in cribbage history and a roaring good time. These two players have been neck to neck all year, forsaking social lives and academic standing to perfect their game. Come see the masters in action, as Zach "Z-Money" McArthur tries to keep his since-spring-break streak rolling against Jonathan "J-Dawg" Landsman's best efforts to turn the tides. If you see one game of cribbage in your life, THIS is the game to see.</blockquote><br />
<br />
===Highlights of 2001 - 2002===<br />
* '''Exactly 100 games are played.''' So began the tradition of making the 100th game in a year a special event. <br />
:Zach has occassionally made allegations that Jonathan "refused" to play more games after the 100th, in the final two weeks of school, but this seems unlikely for strategic reasons given that Jonathan was losing at game 100. Jonathan claims he had "finals."<br />
* '''Historic 28-point hand.''' A 28-point hand is extremely rare, and second in score only to the 29-point hand, which was never attained by Zach or Jonathan.<br />
:In one of only two games ever to occur between Jonathan and Zach's father, Jonathan came back to win from a 25-point deficit in the 3rd stretch when he was dealt all four fives, and a king was cut. The odds of getting a 28-point hand in a 2 player game are 1 in 15,028, so I believe we can attribute this occurence to sheer luck and not Jonathan's skill.<br />
<br />
===Final Statistics, 2001 - 2002===<br />
<table border=5><tr><td><pre> Zach: 57 (6 skunks) <br />
Jonathan: 55 (6 skunks) <br />
<br />
Total games: 100, including 12 skunks<br />
</pre></td></tr></table><br />
'''Note:''' Tally of games were made on the East 3 [[quote board]], which was a sheet of contact paper stuck to the western wall of the common room and marked with magic markers. No one seems to have recovered the quote board at the end of the year, and the tallies have been long lost, presumed destroyed by a custodian. As a result, the exact sequence of games and skunks are not known.<br />
<br />
==The 2002 - 2003 Season==<br />
<br />
A new academic year brought new challenges. The convulsions of an embryonic [[Anchor Housing]] movement the prior spring had reduced [[Housing Draw#Group_size|pick size]] to 4, thereby scattering the two cribbage titans to opposite sides of campus: [[Prospect]] for Zach and [[Mission]] for Jonathan. Would the two remain friends? More importantly, would the cribbage series continue?<br />
<br />
In fact, the second season of cribbage saw not only a modest increase in the total number of games played, but the longest gaming sessions of any year. Zach's [[walkthrough double]] in Prospect housed no fewer than three cribbage boards, and up to four games in a row were played on said boards on some days -- and not just over Winter Study. Somehow, visits later in the day for a second bout of matches were also fairly common, though nearly unheard of in future years, as the more wizened players seemed to opt for a steadier pace.<br />
<br />
Williams Cribbage historians, in conjunction with eminent sociologists, have postulated that the great distance between Prospect and Mission was spanned, in part, by Zach's Ms. Pacman habit coupled with the existence of the game on Jonathan's computer. Anecdotes from the time record that Zach could often be found in Jonathan's [[Pratt]] room even when he was not there, playing Ms. Pacman in the endless quest for a high score -- perhaps to alleviate his cribbage woes, for Jonathan did well this year. Playing solo, Zach set some impressive high scores, but the highest score in the books at Williams was set by the simultaneous cooperative play of Zach and Jonathan: well over 200,000.<br />
<br />
===The 100th Game of 2002 - 2003===<br />
Out of deference to tradition and a certain homesickness, the [[common room]] of [[East#East_3|East 3]] was again chosen as the site for the century match. Dan Krass '05 and Al Gordon '04, were hired to commentate for the event. Latecomers trickled in as Dan and Al interviewed the players on their game plans, and on the season so far. A modest crowd of spectators witnessed Zach's sound defeat.<br />
<br />
Occasions of great moment need great events, and so the publicity for the second hundredth game of cribbage (#200) took on a wider scope. Emails were sent to the [[Bridge]] and [[Deviants]] [[listservers]]; the Deviants version, sent 10 April 2003, is reprinted below:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Pop quiz, hotshots: you're sitting at a table across from the smartest, most attractive specimen of your desired sex you have ever dreamed of. What do you do? Normally, an invitation to play bridge would be in order, but there are only two of you. So what, my friend, DO YOU DO?<p><br />
<br />
Whip out that cribbage board, my friend, the one you carry with you everywhere you go. That, a deck of cards, and another human with a modicum of intelligence, as Zach and I demonstrate, is all you need to play.</p><p><br />
<br />
Zach? Who's that?</p><p><br />
<br />
Zach McArthur has come to bridge a few times. He lives in Prospect, and is a lover of Deviance; some of you may see him around in Driscoll, and certainly never in class. I know him better as my first real friend freshman year, in my entry of East 3. We met, actually, when I saw he had a cribbage board. Last year we played 100 games, and he won in May with a final score of 57 to 55. This year, we finished our 99th game last Monday.</p><p><br />
<br />
It is time . . . for <b>***Zach and Jonathan's Big 100, 2003***</b></p><p><br />
<br />
Zach and I will be playing our 100th match in the East 3 common room TONIGHT AT 9:00, for tradition's sake. The frosh there have no idea. We hope they won't beat us up. The score now is Me 58, Zach 55, so Zach can put himself very close with a skunk (win by 31), or take the first 100 with a double skunk (win by 61). This promises to be an exciting match. We are looking for a commentator (only someone with a deep knowledge of the game, please, this is world class stuff here. Yes, I'm kidding) and a pregame and maybe halftime show. Zach and I are a show in ourselves, though. It's going to be lots of fun, everything is in jest. . . except the game, which is for all the marbles, the honor, the glory, the affirmation of our manhoods. If you can't make it at 9, show up as soon as you can. We'll likely be there until 9:30.</p><p><br />
<br />
And Bridge night will start this week at 9:30 in the usual place, Currier North 3rd floor common room, unless Cribbage spectators, like hungry children asked to wait for the pie to cool on the windowsill before digging in, just cannot bear any delay and break down to get down and dirty, bridge style, right there in the East 3 common room.</p><p><br />
<br />
Good wishes to you all, my friends.</p></blockquote><br />
<br />
Some, including Jonathan, probably did not know what lengths Zach had to go to to make the 9pm starting time. A [[Men's Golf Team]] dinner at the Williams Inn saw the team sit down at 7pm, get noticed for service at 7:30pm, eat appetizers at 8:15pm, and be served the main course at 8:45pm. After wolfing down lamb chops (ha, ha), Zach turned to the 70-year-old Williams alumnus who was paying for dinner and calmly said, "Thank you so much, but I have to run - I have a big cribbage game." He then literally ran the half-mile across campus to the Odd Quad, arriving in East 3 with a minute to spare.<br />
<br />
===Highlights of 2002 - 2003===<br />
<br />
* '''A special sequence''' of play is recorded: 4-4-4-3-2-A-3-2. This sequence carries the distinction of having every card after the first score at least two points. Player 2 comes out on top, scoring fifteen to 1's twelve.<br />
* Cribbage communication logistics are tested by the necessity of maintaining '''two scoreboards''' on opposite ends of campus. Syncronization proves less of a problem than vandalism, which claims two boards handmade by Zach and posted in the central [[Prospect]] vestibule. Only his "Upstate vs. Downstate" themed scoreboard -- a reference to Zach's Rochester and Jonathan's New York City origins -- has survived to date.<br />
<br />

<br />
==The 2003 - 2004 Season==<br />
<br />
When Zach drove down to Queens to pick up Jonathan for the ride up to start junior year, the 2003-4 season was kicked off with the first off-campus face-to-face cribbage match. Besides being a landmark game for this reason, the event also led to the ruling that a new season begins after the previous year's finals, and is ''not'' determined by the first day of classes.<br />
<br />
By the third year, Zach and Jonathan were essentially cribbage machines, able to play full games in an average of 15 minutes with ease, or as little as 10 when rushing. Distances were again a test to the rivalry: with Jonathan having returned to the [[Odd Quad]] on [[Currier]] third floor, and Zach perched high in [[Gladden]] 5, altitude became a significant factor in addition to distance. Nevertheless, the competition churned onwards.<br />
<br />
This year brought a small decline in total number of games played, after a substantial rise from freshman to sophomore year. Scholars explain this by focusing their study on the [[Winter Study]] period of this year, during which Zach and Jonathan attended [[Lessons In Go]]. Some scholars of this era have offered their Theory of Divertment Dilution to explain this phenomenon. It holds that, with Zach and Jonathan now faced with a choice of how to spend their time together, between playing Go and Cribbage, the overall probability that cribbage is played diminishes when total free time is held constant. This theory has met with stiff resistance from scholars of the Second Year, who assert that, if the theory held, there ought to have been a reduction of cribbage play in year two in light of increased Ms. Pacman play.<br />
<br />
Whatever the governing force behind it, the decrease in total games seems not to have impacted total skunks, which went from 15 to 16 this year. From Jonathan's claim of 9 of these to Zach's 7, coupled with similar trends Senior Year and after, analysts mark this year the beginning of a shift in Jonathan's gameplay to follow a more aggressive strategy. A look at all four years shows that this may have been the key to Jonathan's downfall: in every year, the leader in skunks was also the loser of the century match, and the year's series.<br />
<br />
===The 100th Game of 2003 - 2004===<br />
[[Image:Cribbage300.jpg|right|thumbnail|The players and spectator gallery encircle the scoreboard for a photo op at the conclusion of the third century ceremonies.

Dan Burns '06, match commentator, is second from top right. In the background is [[Currier]] house. Photo taken by Mrs. Mary Lundberg, Zach's [[Your Mom|mom]].]] By the third year, the popularity of the Cribbage Series had grown to monumental size, at least in the minds of the two people playing it. Planning for the big 100th game (#317) began in September. The scoreboard this year was finely crafted for display outdoors, and Zach's mother attended the event: a life sized cribbage game in the Odd Quad.<br />

<br />
The site was the [[Odd Quad]], a triangle of grass surrounded by concrete sidewalk right in front of Jonathan's dorm of [[Currier]]. Before the event, Jonathan and Zach labeled squares of the circuit of sidewalk with numbers from 1 to 30, so that human "pegs" could make the rounds four times to reach victory. Live assistants were needed to play the role of peg for each player; for Jonathan, the lovely Margit Sande-Kerback '05 stepped forth, and for Zach, the enchanting Julia Brown '06 presented herself.<br />
<br />
The wood-burned scoreboard was brought from its place in Currier to be displayed on a post, which was actually an ancient sign promoting Amy and Todd, from the [[CC]] co-presidential campaign of [[Spring 2000]]. The spirit imbuing the wood, the game's excellent placement, and the growing reknown of cribbage all contributed to draw the biggest and most enthusiastic spectatorship yet, at about 20 people. It was a very windy day, and everyone except the pegs huddled around the two players kneeling in the grass, both to share warmth and to protect the game from blowing away.<br />
<br />
The result is less important than the historical record of the event itself, but if you must know, Jonathan was thrashed in front of friends, friend's family, and girlfriend.<br />

== The Summer 2004 Season ==<br />

<br />
After a resolution made a year prior to spend a summer together in Williamstown, the friends (and foes) lived for 2 months on bustling Spring Street from mid-June to mid-August 2004. The first 2 weeks of summer found Zach bunking on Jonathan’s floor in Morgan East while Zach’s apartment over Helen’s Place was getting sterilized from the [[football]] team’s contamination the previous year. This situation allowed for the heated rivalry of 2003-2004 to go straight into an overtime, so both players' skills stayed sharp for the real, and final, season senior year.<br />
<br />
Games were played both in Morgan East during bridge club nights and at the apartment over Helen’s Place, once Zach had moved in. The combination of enormous amounts of free time (Jonathan frequently did not start work until 2 pm and Zach was largely unemployed) and the presence of cribbage boards in the Helen’s Place apartment drew a few more casual players to the game, especially Emily Russell-Roy ’06 and Dave Weimer ’06, who seemed to have a rivalry of their own heating up.<br />
<br />
A modest total of 29 games was played over the summer, but looking back it was these games that allowed for the frenzy of senior year games to reach an amazing cribbage milestone. It was agreed before the start of play that the summer would not count toward the “years won†tally, so Jonathan remained behind 2 years to 1 going into the final year, still with the chance to even the epic struggle. Interestingly, only 2 skunks were recorded, one per man, as it appeared both competitors were happy simply to play cribbage over the summer and less concerned about piling up points at the end of games.<br />
<br />
From the point of view of most analysts, this season is the least important, and most overlooked in scholarly writings on the Great Williams Cribbage Series. However, those who scholars who approach their study from a geographical point of view have found this era to be an invaluable source of information for juxtaposition with years in which Zach and Jonathan lived across campus. Studies have sought a relationship between ''d'', the distance between the competitors, and ''g'', games played. With Jonathan and Zach cohabiting a room, the Summer 2004 series has provided an invaluable set of data points in the lower end of the ''d'' scale. Though models have been inconclusive, the sheer simplicity of the model has made it good grist for entry-level courses in study on Williams Cribbage. Many freshman a lab report has been written on the trends in ''d'' and ''g''.<br />
<br />
Whatever their esoteric area of focus, there is one thing on which the scholars all agree: cribbage played with warm summer breezes through open windows is as close to a real sport as [[golf]] is.<br />
<br />

== The 2004-2005 Season ==<br />
<br />
Even Zach and Jonathan would probably have been surprised if they knew in early September 2004 the sheer volume of games they were going to undertake their senior season. Jonathan managed to snag a room in the elite senior year housing of Chadbourne House (pick 84), while Zach was in for another year of survival within the riff raff brick walls of Greylock (pick 110). This was not all for the worst, however, as Greylock and Chadbourne’s doors were but a couple of hundred yards apart -- the closest the friends had lived since freshman year. The number of games reflected this proximity, as an incredible 153 games were played in the ~225 days spent on campus from September through May. All told, probably over 50 cribbage-hours were logged by the friends -- looking back, maybe two or three should have been put towards [[PSYC 401]].<br />
<br />
Jonathan continued to have the edge in skunks, collecting 13 to Zach’s 8 as his ever more aggressive play continued to pay off. When a large lead materialized early in the game, double skunks, or winning by 61 points, were often the subject of trash talking, but neither player would amass that large a margin of victory by the end of any match. This saved the two from deciding whether the elusive double skunk would be worth four points, or some other value in the tally.<br />
<br />
As the year wore on, it was clear that the training Zach had in early life at the hands of his father and grandfather had paid off handsomely for him, as he waltzed through the season with Jonathan in his rear view mirror. Jonathan trailed by an average of ~10 games throughout the season, coming within one game of Zach only once, and no closer. The frustration, as he began to slip back down to his prior ten-game deficit, was enough to send his will to read Melville's ''Pierre'' down the crapper.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the return to focus on cribbage, leaving distractions such as Go, Ms. Pacman, and term papers, were certainly a factor in Zach’s excellent year. Another possible reason for the season’s result was that it was Zach’s second year in a Greylock dorm -– it certainly became a comfort zone for matches and perhaps reached the point of an unfair home-field advantage. <br />
<br />
After four years of learning each others' tendencies and styles, the duo could play in almost any environment, maintaining same easy rhythm to the game. Music, especially in Jonathan’s room, was background to almost every contest; Marc Cohn’s ''Walking in Memphis'' and Dexy's Midnight Runners’ ''Come on Eileen'' were just two among many favorites. Playing in front of the TV was a new and frequent feature this year, especially if the MTV show ''Boiling Points'' happened to be on. To be honest, the friends often scheduled game sessions specifically to coincide with showings of ''Boiling Points''.<br />
<br />
To the entire town's surprise, the hours and hours of cribbage somehow did not destroy the duo’s grades. Jonathan got [[Phi Beta Kappa]], and was so surprised at this development he e-mailed the person in charge back to make sure it wasn’t a mistake. Zach wound up graduating ''cum laude'' to the shock of his mother and golf coach, among countless others. <br />
<br />
=== The 100th game of 2004-2005 ===<br />
<br />
The hundredth game (#455) was played in Fitch Hall on January 9th: by far the earliest 100th game in any season. It was held during [[Fitch]]'s Sunday Tea and was a low-key matchup played before a group of about 15 odd-quadders, many of whom left for [[Driscoll]] dinner before the game was even over, and never knew it was taking place. It isn’t even remembered who won the game --though statistically Zach probably did. The game held less significance than in past years as it was merely a step toward the Big One –- the 500th game at Williams.<br />
<br />
=== The 500th Game ===<br />
[[Image:Cribbage500_crowd.jpg|right|thumbnail|Friends and fans gather in front the banner that displayed the year's tally. Zach, newly crowned champion, tops the stairs, with Jonathan content at the bottom, up to his chin in adoring babes.]]<br />
Zach and Jonathan’s four years of friendship and cribbage culminated in early April with the 500th game played since that fateful fall day freshmen year when Jonathan saw Zach’s board and inquired “You play?†and Zach answered “Yes.†A perfect situation unfolded for the 500th game – Chadbourne resident and cribbage fan Robert Hahn '05 had scheduled a root beer keg party for Saturday April 10th, and welcomed Zach and Jonathan's big game to the festivities. To promote the blockbuster event, the following ad was run in the Daily Messages the week of April 4th:<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Cribbage Fan??? Come to the Williams Cribbage Club's annual meeting on Saturday April 9th. The two titans of the college game, Jonathan Landsman '05 and Zach McArthur '05 square off in their 500th game of their career at 1pm on Perry Volleyball Court.<br><br><br />
<br />
Come learn the game and then cheer on your cribbage stud of choice, Z-money or J-dawg in their 500th clash. Runs, pairs, fifteens,... it's going to be crazy. Don't miss this epic event, or you'll be, like, totally skunked</blockquote><br />
In addition, Jonathan emailed the bridge and deviant listservers, while Zach composed an email late the night before the contest to the golf team, Gladden, and the pair’s freshman year East Three entrymates. It read,<br />
<br />
<blockquote>1 pm<br />

[[Image:Cribbage500_stomp.jpg|right|thumbnail|Never one for subtlety, Zach declares his victory standing over a defeated, but good-natured, Jonathan.]]<br />
Notes Zach: "I am pretty sure I was drinking when I wrote that email. With my insurmountable lead, I was able to drink the night before the big game."<br />
<br />
With virtually the entire campus aware of the game, a large bedsheet was converted into recapping the four years of cribbage and hung on the net of Perry Volleyball Court on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. A most special part of the event, noticed by very few attendees other than the contestants, was the intricate ivory board which marked the score. A present from Jonathan's grandfather and never used before, the board dated back to World War II. The atmosphere for the game will probably never be seen for a cribbage match again - dozens of students milled around cheering for both sides as updates were periodically shouted out to the volleyball court and fire escape where an aerial view of the matchup was afforded. The game itself was a rather lopsided affair despite Zach's best efforts to self-handicap the night before. Jonathan probably would have been happier drinking root beer floats with the rest of the crowd, but he gamely stayed at the table enduring yet another thrashing - this a public one.<br />
<br />
=== Highlights, 2004-2005 ===<br />
<br />
* '''Sheer volume.''' The 153 games played far eclipsed any other year's total. It is even more impressive because 145 were needed to even reach a 500th game, and the vast majority of these were played even before [[Spring Break]] started in mid-March. Only 8 games were played after the 500th - a beautiful spring meant volleyball and golf took hold of Jonathan and Zach's afternoons.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Cribbage500_banner.jpg|right|thumbnail|The rivals pose in front of the scoreboard, posted on [[Perry]]'s balcony.]]<br />
* '''The official scoreboard is crafted the day of the 500th game.''' Until the 500th game, Jonathan had kept the tally on a sticky note on his computer, with Zach entirely unable to add single digit numbers, and asking Jonathan every few days to remind him what the standings were. After being nagged for seven months to make a scoreboard of similar quality to Jonathan's classy 2003-2004 wood-burned version, Zach took up the task with plenty of time to spare. The morning of April 10th he began thinking of finding a bedsheet to write on. Not wanting to soil his own sheet, he "borrowed" one from Karen Untereker '05. At approximately noon, with the 500th game scheduled for 1pm, Zach found some markers in [[Chadbourne]], spread the sheet out on the common room floor, and created a masterpiece of art. By 12:55pm, [[tour|tours]] leaving from the [[Admissions Office]] were openly laughing at his struggles duct taping it to the [[Perry]] Volleyball net as the wind wrapped it around and around the cords. But for all arriving at the party at 1pm, it appeared the scoreboard had been tended to the whole year - carefully tabulated and color-coded, it rippled in the breeze as a 6 by 8 foot testament to four years of friendship and competition.<br />

<br />
As the rivals' college cribbage careers wound down, questions were raised about the Future. The two were highly accomplished at using cribbage to put off homework, but would they both put their procrastination skills to work on avoiding post-graduate employment? Zach certainly did, only picking up a job in September 2005 when a friend’s father called him at home to inquire if he was working. Zach, in fact, had been lying in bed playing cribbage against his computer at that very moment. He took the job. Jonathan, however, managed only a single day off between graduation and starting work as a gardener near Philadelphia. <br />
<br />
Since graduation, Jonathan has whipped Zach consistently both online in Yahoo! Cribbage game rooms and even face-to-face in his garden cottage in Devon, PA. Zach is not worried, however, as his 3-1 years won advantage will forever hold up – “the rest of life†only counts as a single year, so he is guaranteed bragging rights forever no matter how many games J-dawg wins in the long future ahead.<br />
<br />
=== In Search of the Truth: Who's Better? ===<br />
<br />
<!--Of the 508 games of cribbage played between Fall 2001 and [[Commencement]] 2005, Zach was victorious in 264 games, Jonathan in 244. However, only 31 of Zach's victories were skunks, to Jonathan's 36. This accounts for the smaller margin of difference in the final score: Zach 295, Jonathan 280.--></div>
