Voth Hall, room 116/1.13.12/9:02 p.m.
Jacob Brubaker, sophomore from Miami, Ariz., periodically hosts tea and conversation in his Voth Hall room, providing the hot water and loose-leaf tea. Present on this particular evening during interterm were (pictured from left) Brubaker, Caroline Mayhew and Clarie Koehn, along with Nadya Bucklin, Evan Koch, Zach Metzler, Martin Olson, Brian Skinner and photographer Claire Unruh. Subjects of conversation included interterm classes: yoga, taught by Barbara Thiesen '81, in which students learn impeccably correct posture that may or may not be displayed here, along with anecdotes from the two sections of BIFL and Dwight Krehbiel '69's Animal Behavior class.
