Yeah!....College!

Hey guys,
I hope your exams and the rest of your year went well and, to all you seniors, I'm gonna miss you. Well, seeing as how it's summer and all there isn't a heck of a lot to overhear "at" Yale. So let's make this site into Overheard BY Yale. Send me the weird, mysterious, and hilarious things you Yalies here wherever you are this summer. Make sure to let me know where you hear it so we can keep track of where all the freaks live!

Mucho gusto,
Joe
