Lice

Circa October 10th, 2001, some of the freshmen of East 3 went to the [[Health Center]] to investigate some symptoms they had, and sure enough determined that they were carrying head lice. The original carrier and source were unknown, but the infestation spread to about seven of the 18 residents. Remarkably, there were cases of one roommate having it but not the other.
Even though parasitic infestation was not a part of their [[Junior Advisor training]], Krishna Kanaan Kannan '03 and Jeremy Redburn '03 led their [[entry]] boldly through the trial. It quickly became an excellent shared experience, as it was excellent fodder for inside jokes and group shampooing treatments were also bonding sessions (perhaps more for the women than the heterosexual males).
The infection ran its course in a couple of weeks, but thanks to whomever put up the hilarious warning signs and the resulting buzz among the frosh, the memory will last forever. This author wishes he had taken one as a memento.
