Freshman "Clash Of The Quads" Planned
2003 October 11-12
A two-day freshman "Clash of the Quads" planned. The new activity is sponsored by the Division of Student Affairs and is meant to encourage school spirit. Saturday activities are scheduled for Indian (now named Indigenous) and State quads and will include kickball, egg on a spoon races, musical chairs, a three-legged race, a single and pairs double dutch competition, and a tug-of-war. The winners will face off on Sunday for a tricycle race, volleyball and a seed spitting contest. [Archivist note: The "Clash of the Quads" is a revival, with a twist, of the old New York State College for Teachers tradition of Freshman/Sophomore "Rivalry" discontinued in the 1960s.]
