The most wonderful time at the Pier

It’s that time of year again. Spring has blossomed, and with it comes this gracious invitation to celebrate the final day of class with us, the men of St. Edward’s Hall, aboard the Mystic Blue — that’s right, it’s Yacht Dance season. Keeping the tradition of the outgoing St. Edward’s Presidents before me, I offer you the incredible opportunity to cruise the beautiful waters of Lake Michigan along the greatest skyline (and city) in the world as my date. We will set sail on the thirtieth evening of April, during the two thousand fourteenth year of our Lord, when showers turn to flowers at midnight. However, you must act now if you’d like to be my first mate for the festivities. By following the applicable link below (you’re welcome for the online hits, Observer) and completing the questionnaire, you will be entered for a chance to be chosen. I’d say “don’t go overboard” with your answers, but I’m sure that ship has already sailed. So just go with whatever floats your boat. Okay, in all seriousness, I’m a normal person.
