Ra Ra Riot and The Cool Kids will open for Nelly on Slope Day, the committee announced today.
Quite the juxtaposition. Ra Ra Riot is an indie rock band from up the road in Syracuse and The Cool Kids, a hip-hop group, are based out of Chicago. Should be an eclectic afternoon. Minus the drunken shenanigans…?

I’m currently sitting at the S.A. meeting–Dean Hubbell, the Review’s biggest fan, is sitting directly in front of me, among three other people–where the Slope Day budget is being discussed.
Best S.A. logic of the day: We need to increase funding for Slope Day because then we’ll be able to afford better performers, and if we have better performers, fewer people will feel the need to drink on the slope, which will increase safety and decrease drinking-related costs! So by increasing costs, we actually decrease costs. This man deserves a position in the Obama White House designing health care policy.
I couldn’t tell who it was that said it, but I’ll update this when I figure it out.

I was informed of this update from The Sun via Bilmes’ blog. He claims to have done 45 out of 161, and my count currently puts me at 27. I’m not sure if this was on last year’s list, but this one gets my vote for the most ingenious thing that every Cornellian must do:
21. Bury a bottle of Bacardi on the Slope. Dig it up on Slope Day.
