Ditch Day in Blacker
as told by Teo Beloreshka ('02)

Ditch Day is a day for fun and games-a day away from work; a day to enjoy the beautiful California scenery and the gorgeous Caltech campus; a day when the Dean becomes a spy, professors become secret agents, the Court of Mann becomes a bootcamp, and you become a hero uncovering deep mysetries...

The stacks that the Blacker House seniors plan usually accomodate teams of
8-10 people--smaller than stacks in most of the other houses. In most stacks, the group has to work as one to accomplish all tasks. Occasionally there are stacks in which each person has a special task that he/she has to execute during the day. Sometimes you get to be a grand french chef for a day and sometimes a mime; other times you are just a swimmer or a miner, maybe a photographer....Of course, there are the times when you are a spy on a mission from GOD, or maybe secret agent 007; sometimes you are a movie star-Harrison Ford or Sean Connery, take your pick...sometimes you are just a kid again, playing your
favorite game; and sometimes you just play out a favorite book of yours... whatever you are, wherever Ditch Day takes you, you are quaranteed a day of pure, uncensured fun-an unforgetable memory for life... 

But when is Ditch Day, you might wonder...well here is all I know about
that: Ditch Day is tomorrow, Frosh. :-).  But maybe someone else knows more...
