(The TV Studio was once the college's choir hall, and the spirit of singers from the past is sometimes too much to fight off.)

(Don't mess with THIS group if you see them in a dark alley...they look VERY tough! Either that, or they have watched too many videos on MTV.)

(How it was determined who should be "see no evil", who should be "say no evil", and who should be "hear no evil" is a mystery. Why they would pose this way is even more of a mystery.)
At Large Counselors: (L to R) Ashley Weets '06, Lost Nation, IA; Casey Luensmann '07, Manchester, IA; and Karen Connelly '06, Cedar Falls, IA.
(We understand the love for Dr. Stein, and for Odie...but for "Odo-Ban"?)
