Mis-adventures

Pi Doot pledge brothers experienced plenty of ups and downs. The downs were usually associated with alcohol use, which seemed to lead to an inability to consider the consequences of obviously incompletely thought out actions. A small sample is described in this section, including excerpts from an e-mail exchange on the freshman year Fiji Island party bus.

This example from John Haase about Dave Snider is not atypical of the behavior of which we were capable.

Dave Snider at Gertrude Sellards Pearson (GSP Freshman Women's Dorm)

{ Haase} Who can polish this story? Snider takes his date back to the dorm one night and is confronted by a police officer with respect to his drunken behavior (clearly he was a passenger in a double date thing). The officer asked for ID, Dave gave him his driver’s license (or student ID), bolted, and ran back to the house. When he shared his story and was confronted with the reality of what he had done, he quietly uttered, “Oh rats (expletive substitute for obvious reasons)”.
