Every summer, many students foolishly choose to spend the three-month break [[summer in Williamstown|in Williamstown]]. This page records 2010's incarnation of this practice: the students on campus, where they will live and [[:Category:Dining|dine]], any notable events, and the like.<br />

<br />
===Places to go and Things to do===<br />
You can easily get by without a car during the school year. But when that 9-5 job ends, you're not left with much else to do because this is Williamstown, MA, after all. Here are some places in the "area" to spend some luxury time. <br />
<br />
*Pittsfield is a bit closer than Vermont with 2 decent lakes. It's a "city." There's also Barrington Stage and The Colonial if you're interested in theatre/cultural activities and have seen everything at Williamstown Theatre Festival already. <br />
<br />
*Lake Shaftsbury, VT. A short 45 minute drive away, Lake Shaftsbury offers a nice big lake with walking path around the lake, a dirt volleyball area, a wide open field for frisbee throwing and other events, paddleboats for rent, and more! $2 or $3 per person. [http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=262+State+Park+Rd,+Shaftsbury,+VT+05262+(Lake+Shaftsbury+State+Park)&geocode=17165859843304142990,43.022335,-73.181710&dirflg=&saddr=williamstown,+ma&f=d&hl=en&dq=Lake+Shaftsbury+State+Park&sll=43.020212,-73.182893&sspn=0.007954,0.014591&cid=43022335,-73181710,274382175053253860&ie=UTF8&z=10 Directions].<br />
<br />
*[http://www.bso.org/bso/index.jsp?id=bcat5240070 Tanglewood]. This performance space of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Boston Pops is located in Lenox and is an outstanding location for a picnic and a concert. Try to get there before the end of the summer. <br />
<br />
*[http://www.wtfestival.org/ Williamstown Theater Festival]. It's here again this year. Students are allowed to purchase "Student Rush Tickets" to all performances starting three hours before curtain for $15. Otherwise, shows are pretty expensive, but it's an opportunity to see some good theater without going very far.<br />
<br />
==Students on campus==<br />

<div>[[Category:Students]] [[Category:Games]]<br />
Poker is quickly becoming the most popular card game in the world, surpassing games traditionally thought of as more "sophisticated" such as [[bridge]], gin rummy, and [[cribbage]]. Here are some of the students on campus with poker skills and where you can find them online:<br />

<div>[[Category:History]][[Category:Advice]]<br />
''Anecdotes and eyewitness accounts appreciated, though some identities should be left out (see Willipedia's relevant policy on [[Project:Policies#Naming Names|"naming names"]]).<br />
<br />
== Anecdotes ==<br />
<br />
Two students were spotted at a booth in the North-East corner of '''[[Driscoll]]'''. They were seen lying on top of each other, playing tonsil hockey, and at one point placing their toungues in each other's ears. (Witnesses include: Tyler Auer, Laura Ellison, Kevin Coombs, and Eric Muller) (February 2006)<br />
<br />
A group of Willy F-ers spotted a pair canoodling in one of the small tables inside '''[[Dodd Dining Hall|Dodd]]'''. Not only were they visibly feeling each other up at one point, they were also in the main hallway, making it visible for everyone to see from every vantage point. At one point, the group was shocked to see the female's hand explore some very risque area down south... (Witnesses include: Stephanie Dockery, Wes Johnson, Cat Vielma, and Sam Wallace) (February 2006)<br />
<br />
An ab workout just not good enough? Try finishing each sit-up with a little smooch in '''the [[weight room]]''', where a couple has been seen to do the same on multiple occasions by Kevin Coombs and Eric Muller.<br />
<br />
'''[[Ephporium]]?''' One couple was spotted smooching near the cereals. Said smooching was accompanied by a remarkable amount of buttock-caressing. (April 2006)<br />
<br />
A couple was spotted making hanky-panky in '''[[Jesup Hall|Jesup]] basement''' (see [http://wso.williams.edu/discuss/comments.php?DiscussionID=597 WSO discussion]). (December 2006)<br />
<br />
A couple was witnessed at the bottom of the stairs to Greylock Dining Hall holding each other, kissing, and whispering sweet nothings in one-another's ears. Witnesses considered the mouth-to-mouth surprising given the inedibility of the food this night. (March 2010)<br />
<br />
== Locations ==<br />
<br />
Check out these recommended spot for some fine making out opportunities. See applicable [[common courtesy]] considerations.<br />
<br />
* Upstairs in '''[[Center for Environmental Studies|CES]]''', in the old student lounge to your right down the hallway off the top of the main staircase. Pluses: contains couch, door locks. Minuses: interior door is of the office of [[Drew Jones]], [[Hopkins Forest]] manager. Best to be somehow sure he won't be coming by while you're in there. I hear he's busy during [[maple sugaring]] season . . .<br />
<br />
== Etiquette ==<br />
<br />
''See also: "[[Common courtesy]]".<br />
<br />
* If you choose to make out in a [[common room]], you are taking your chances. Don't lock the door.<br />
* If you must [[sexile]] your roommate, give him at least a day's warning to get his stuff and find somewhere else to sleep. No one likes coming home to a locked door that you know someone is behind but nobody's answering.</div>Clh1https://wso.williams.edu/wiki/index.php?title=In_Support_of_the_Log&diff=19404In Support of the Log2010-02-14T19:46:20Z<p>Clh1: </p>

<div>On January 27, College Council passed the following resolution in support of re-opening the log. If you support the following resolution, please add your name to the petition.<br />
<br />
<br />
2009-2010 Williams College Council<br />
<br />
Resolution 08-0910<br />
Introduced on January 13, 2010<br />
<br />
Author(s): Ifiok Inyang ’11<br />
Co-Sponsor(s): Michael Tcheyan ’10 and Emanuel Yekutiel <br />
<br />
A statement of support and sponsorship for the reopening of The Log<br />
<br />
WHEREAS The Log is a College institution steeped in tradition that has been enjoyed and cherished by several generations of students.<br />
<br />
WHEREAS The Log has been closed since late 2007 and had been operating in a reduced capacity for the 5 previous years.<br />
<br />
WHEREAS A reopened Log could serve as a venue for a diverse array of students, faculty, staff, and authorized guests to come together and share in an eclectic blend of positive social activities.<br />
<br />
WHEREAS A reopened Log will have a subdued, pub-like atmosphere that encourages moderation: Programming plans include events such as open mic nights and literary readings along with pub quizzes and other creative events – no dance parties. <br />
<br />
WHEREAS Along with a selection of alcoholic beverages, the bar will also serve juices, soft drinks, coffee, tea, gourmet sandwiches, baked goods, and light snacks.<br />
<br />
WHEREAS A wristband ID system and highly trained staff will ensure that the venue, which will be open from Thursday to Saturday between the hours of 7 p.m. and midnight, operates in a safe, responsible, and successful manner.<br />
<br />
LET IT BE RESOLVED that the Williams College Council:<br />
<br />
1. Supports the reopening of the Log as a bar for the benefit of Williams students, faculty, staff, and authorized guests.<br />
<br />
2. Endorses and agrees to sponsor the reopened Log as a vital and beneficial student space.<br />
<br />
3. Commits up to $20,000 to financially supporting the reopening of the Log through the means at its disposal should the operation run a deficit. This guarantee is contingent upon the College administration’s approval of a plan to reopen the Log as a bar as well as the administration’s support for the startup costs of this project. The amount of guaranteed financial support is significant in relation to the semester operating costs of the Log. <br />
<br />
4. Will devise a means for financing deficits should the Log run them, to be determined by the Treasurer in consultation with other Council members.<br />
<br />
5. Will assess its support of the Log at the end of the 2009-2010 academic year, and does not guarantee financial support for the operation beyond this point. -Is that your blood? -Some of it, yeah.<br />
