Our Time 1998

Understatement was definitely the word of the year for IMSA's second residence hall. To the average visitor, none of the wings had any discernable theme. Instead of labeling their wings, 1502 decided to act as one commu– nity, the greatest approach to surviving the j ung le of resi– dential life. They survived IMSA by being "the men of 1502," instead of "the men of many wi ngs ." Decorative measures were the only difference between 1502 's wings. Early in the year, the A-wing CDs, Adam Van Den Boom and Drew Massey, opted to use the generous donation from a former wing member of about thirty movie posters to decorate the walls of their wing. Lone CD of B- wing, Barat Samy, chose to decorate the wing with a style that suited its inhabitants per– fectly: pictures of admirable athletes. The CDs of C-wing, Matthew Mowers and Jason Wiley, went for the "neo-post- modern minimalist look." "Actu– ally," said Senior CD Matthew Mowers, "we asked our guys at the beginning to help decorate the wing. They left it this way, so they must like it." Unlike C- wing, the proud fellows of D- wing, including CDs Vishnu Kurella and Aaron Foss, took it upon themselves to grace their wing with such adornments as a poster of Che Guevara, a tribute to Nirvana, many, many plants, and a "Wide Load" sign courtesy of a city dump. c Kesidentia4y c ^liey \111 _
