The Throwing of the Toast

So, tomorrow I am going to the home football game against Yale. Kurt, the self-proclaimed cruise director of our cohort and the graduate assistant at Penn's Executive Doctorate in Higher Education Program, organized this event so that people in the Higher Education Master's Program could meet the exec. doc folks. I am really excited to go to the game tomorrow for a few reasons.

• A) I am a little stressed and will jump on any chance to not do work/school stuff right now even though I should
• B) my undergraduate institution did not have a football team so this is the first time I will be at a college football game for a school I actually go to (or a college football game at all for that matter). 
• C) The undergraduate work study person in Admissions and Emily, also from Admissions, told me that there is a tradition of throwing actual pieces of toast on the football game after the third quarter is over in response to lyrics to a sports song and the fact that the stadium banned alcohol in the 1970's.
• D) I am very excited to meet the people from exec. doc. and maybe learn a little bit about their career trajectories.

Well, I have my one and only midterm on Tuesday and need to get to this Higher Education Finance studying! I will leave you with a video of the 'throwing of the toast'. 

P.S. The look on Lindsey's face when she learned about the throwing of the toast was priceless!

AND I spend far too much time at Admissions! : )
