were you wondering what my worst nightmare was?
ST. MARY’S CITY, Md. — Kimberly Fitzgerald, a freshman at St. Mary’s College of Maryland here, loves it when people ask where she lives.
“It’s a good story to tell,” she said. That is because Ms. Fitzgerald and 239 schoolmates live on a cruise ship that was converted into student housing after an outbreak of mold shut down two dorms on campus. The closing forced students into hotels miles from campus, and Ms. Fitzgerald, 18, stayed in a Holiday Inn that was a 45-minute drive from campus. via nyt

Yale QB Patrick Witt found out last week that he was a finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship. Great news right? WRONG. His interview is this weekend in Atlanta, but Witt is scheduled to play against Yale's arch-rival Harvard!
Pop quiz hot shot, what do you do? what do you do?
Spoiler Alert: He's withdrawing his application so that he can focus on playing "The Game." yikes...
"For more than a century, Rhodes scholars have left Oxford with virtually any job available to them. For much of this time, they have overwhelmingly chosen paths in scholarship, teaching, writing, medicine, scientific research, law, the military and public service. They have reached the highest levels in virtually all fields." #justsayin'
Soooo, guess we'll see you at the game this weekend Patrick!
