Event: PSEC’s Welcome Back Celebration
Three words. Mac & cheese truck. Two more words. Gorilla Gorilla. One word. Go. It’s the first week back, and classes are a rude awakening after about a month of a weird vacuum state of finals and relaxation, cramming and comatosing. The Princeton Student Events Committee knows that if anything can coax you back, it’s mac & cheese. Add a little music from Princeton’s own “Gorilla Gorilla,” plus some foosball and Xbox, and you have yourself a nearly functional student. If this isn’t enticing enough, how about the promise of an “Array of Desserts”? What does that entail? How much is an array? How many different types of desserts must be included to constitute an array? There’s only one way to find out.
