100's Night Rooms

After the seniors celebrate with a dinner and receive their bases, they all go out for the weekend while the four degrees (freshmen for all you non Academy folks) decorate or demolish their rooms. Usually it's a three day weekend but for some reason, it was just a regular weekend. Also, it is one of the few times the four degrees are at rest throughout the year and they take full advantage by wreaking havoc on the upperclassmen.

While they had one day less, the freshmen had some pretty cool ideas. I've posted some of my favorites below.

Igloo room. The 4 digs actually brought in snow and kept the room around 10 degrees.

CS20's C4C Corso, Friend, and Barnhill stuffed a room full of over 1600 lbs of paper and hid  the senior's  ID card inside.

A classic. Cover the room in tinfoil.

CS20's C4C Schwartz tied over 10,000 feet of string within this room.

One of my favorites. This freshman turned his senior's room into a toilet.

Sometimes things don't go according to plan, as evident here. These two filled the room up with foam, which then melted overnight and flooded the floor and hallway.

Hap's 100s Night

It's been a while since I posted last, but tonight was really special. The class of 2012 ("Hap") got their base assignments and celebrated 100's Night (named for 100 days until graduation). The celebration includes dinner, a guest speaker, and finally, the revealing of their bases. Most squadrons find creative ways so the seniors have to work to find out their base.

My favorite photos are below:

Or just dress up.


Lt Gen Basla was the guest speaker for the night

The excitement of receiving your first base can be overwhelming for some people.

These two seniors had to follow a maze in order to figure out their base.
