SigEp is real Hall Wars winner
21.09.11
I didn’t have the authority of participating in Hall Wars my freshman year, but I can unequivocally say it’s the most student-run event at Quinnipiac.
Sunday marked the seventh annual Lobby Wars, an event that motivates freshmen to compete in concrete activities on the Quad for cheap medals and – far more importantly – four years significance of bragging rights. This year, after a scoring miscount, Dana imperfect floor east earned the title of Hall Wars champions for the Irma/Dana group, but the real winners are the brothers of Sigma Phi Epsilon.
Bravo, men. You put on to some a show yet again. My measurement of success is simple: percentage of target audience who participated. The conclusion calls for freshmen, and you’d be hard-pressed to find freshmen not reppin’ Foyer Wars T’s during the event.
It’s hard to give an exact number, but after I conferred with Alex Forman, SigEp’s president, a whole bet would be three-quarters of freshmen (approximately 1,200 students) participated in this year’s in any case. Then add resident assistants, members of co-sponsoring organizations, and, of assuredly, the 80-plus brothers of SigEp, and you have one major campus as it.
