It's the magical time of year on Wartburg's campus where Fall Term in in full effect.
This means crunchy leaves, coffees, stressed-out students, and... Outfly predictions.
For those of you that don't know, Outfly is a day picked by the student body president and the president of the college. On that day, Orientation Staff wakes up everybody at like 6 AM to go to the victory bell. And if enough of the student body is there, then it's Outfly!
That means there's no classes on that day. Teacher's serve breakfast, there's games on the lawn, inflatables, a movie, and tons of other activities.
Other things happen too, like lots of naps. And the tattoo parlour has discounts on tattoos (I have 2).
Each year has a theme too. In the past there has been Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Survivor, Marvel,... the list goes on. The team puts out 3 posters that "tease" the theme. This year is really hard and I haven't heard a decent guess yet.
So Outfly is just this amazing things that students always look forward to in the fall. It's a great game to try to guess when it is.
This year, my guess is October 19th. This week has big event, next week is homecoming, and then it must be Outfly because the week after is Fall Break then it's getting to be too late.
No matter when it is, it needs to be soon. You can feel the campus-wide need for it. People are tweeting about it, people are saying it. There's just kinda an Outfly mood on campus.
Really I just want to know the theme, because I really hate not knowing.
So dear Outfly, where are you? We're waiting some-what patiently.
