SUCH festivus party

A huge round of applause to Hamilton College for organizing a great SUCH party. The party this year had a "festivus" theme based on a Seinfeld episode

We were all instructed to send in some festivus grievances- or something that drives us crazy (relating to the admissions process). The top ten grievances were read while standing at the festivus pole.

We all knew Hamilton had something up their sleeves for the "feats of strength" portion of the program after dinner. This turned out to be an admissions related trivia contest. Our emcee was Dave Lyons, a former Hamilton admissions counselor who now is a college advisor at The Rivers School. Dave did a fantastic job of coming up with all of the admissions related trivia questions!

Picture Round. One point to match the school to the picture. One more point to name the Director of College Guidance at the school.
