Perhaps the most famous of Vassar traditions, the annual Daisy Chain is also one of the oldest. Every year, a group of sophomore women, chosen for their leadership skills, class spirit, and eagerness to volunteer their time, are chosen by a committee of the senior class council to carry a 150-foot chain of daisies and laurel, the Daisy Chain, at Commencement. A similar group of sophomore men are chosen as well, to act as Commencement ushers. The "daisies," as these young men and women are known, are an active campus group, assisting the senior class with Commencement week activities. The chain itself is carried on the day of Commencement by the female "daisies" dressed in identical white dresses, functioning as a flower-lined corridor to guide the graduates to the ceremony. The men, in blue blazers, white pants, and purple daisy-print ties, hand out programs and help guide relatives and other Commencement guests to their seats. To serve as a "daisy" is a great honor, for daises are responsible for carrying on a Vassar tradition that extends back to the late 1800s..

17. i thought about going to vasser

but as a guy, i thought it would be emasculating - but on the other hand, it could have been very fun as well.

4. They were around in 1973

The lunatic is on the grass.

The lunatic is on the grass.

Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs.

Got to keep the loonies on the path.


The lunatic is in the hall.

The lunatics are in my hall.

The paper holds their folded faces to the floor

And every day the paper boy brings more.


And if the dam breaks open many years too soon

And if there is no room upon the hill

And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon.

12. Okay, are we long lost relatives or something?

First thing I thought of. (Saw Roger Waters do the entire Dark Side of the Moon - as well as tons of other good stuff - Tuesday night. Wow. Just wow.)

15. *sniff* I'm jealous!

And that's such a perfect song. Builds tension, yet is constructed so symmetrically.

All that you touch
And all that you see...

wild night some time ago.

14. I'm thinking

it's because I worked in a video store in the early 80s. And yes, we had an adult film section.

edit: wish I could say it's for kinkier reasons. ;-)
