So I think I'm getting sick which is no good. A bug has been going around the school and lots of people have been getting sick. This is a big fear among students especially because the pace of your workload at HMC doesn't give you much time to be in bed all the time (hah, I have to do a post about sleep deprivation sometime soon).

I hope I get lucky and get better soon. I have some midterms coming up blehhhhh.

Another little tidbit:
There are many email lists for the college which have different subscribers. There are, of course, lists for the entire student body, lists for graduating classes, lists for clubs, and lists for students enrolled in different courses. However, there are also two email lists per dorm. One is for more serious emails about dorm-related affairs. The other is a "dorm chat" list where all sorts of completely unserious emails get sent out. They're filled with anything from strange and gross youtube videos to incoherent banter. There's also a list called "community-l" (all the lists end in "-l"), which is a place where students can have serious discussions/debates about issues that they're interested in. Topics range from the role of diversity at Mudd to the strengths and weaknesses of the Room Draw system. There's currently some discussion on how free speech impacts the Claremont Colleges and what constitutes a "biased-related incident."
