Is Hiram Boring?

Our AV club, Terrier Productions, likes to go around campus sometimes and interview the students about certain issues. The latest "Your Take" episode posed the question "Is Hiram Boring?" You can view the video here:



Personally, I don't think Hiram is all that boring. Like some of the students said, you just have to know how to find fun. The weekends in particular at Hiram sometimes seem so... empty. I think the reason for this is that everyone returns home for the weekend. So many people return home because they think the weekends are boring. I think if more people stayed they would not have to look so hard to have fun.

But the nice thing is that it kind of encourages you to get out and find people, find something to do because it won't always come find you. For instance, my Friday night: After classes the campus starts to empty. I went to dinner, alone, and found a few friends to sit with and talk. We decided to go to the KC lounge. We played air hockey, table tennis, and pool. We had some food between games, listening to songs played by the DJ's for Hiram's radio station and chatting with each other. We got to meet new people. Then, around midnight, we moved to the lounge of Miller and some watched tv, others played more ping pong, and I taught Rachel a song on the piano. I left a little after one.

It was a fun night. I believe there was also a movie night and a bonfire last night. You can always find something to do here; you just have to look sometimes.
