Moments earlier, Sandy Bandhu ’07 and Gabby Voeller ’07, coordinators of the Annual Entering Student Outdoor Program (AESOP), had been welcoming 315 first-year students who would depart the next day on 45 trips throughout Maine and New Hampshire. Then came the water ambush from Bandhu and Voeller’s AESOP mates, to the great amusement of the assembled first-years. The annual prank on the AESOP coordinators, explains Voeller, “breaks the ice and emphasizes the fun-loving, student-run nature of AESOP.” Photograph by Phyllis Graber Jensen.
