  • Collin Hazlett '12 in Goodsell Observatory
    I enjoy almost anything puzzling or literary. By puzzles, I mean math puzzles, plastic brainteaser puzzles, puzzle-based computer games, newspaper puzzle columns, etc. By literature, I mean good books or poems or other writings of any genre. Anything that fits into both categories is fantastic. This means that I especially like wordplay puzzles and computer games which have text instead of graphics (interactive fiction). I also am a fan of The Office, Firefly, most baked goods, European-style board games, winter scarves, the webcomics Copper, Indexed, and xkcd, Les Miserables (the novel and the musical), M. C. Escher, and any useful device that can be created out of common office supplies. This is only a small sampling of my interests. If you do not see anything here that seems interesting to you, I'm sure that you and I have a common interest somewhere, but it's just not listed here.

  • Chase Kimball '10
    I like theater, and I'm a member of Lenny Dee, Carleton's sketch comedy group. Also lately I've been trying to teach myself Chinese using Rosetta Stone. And a few times a week I'll go for hour-long runs while listening to "Econtalk" podcasts.

    Listening to music, reading, hanging out with friends, playing tag (seriously), playing the violin, watching movies, going on runs and dog walks, and having nice snacks.
