Free ice cream? Count me in!

Sep. 19, 2012—This morning I was feeling stressed about my biomechanics exam that was happening later that day, and I was worried that I wouldn't have time to go over everything that I needed to, as I am quite the crammer. However, my day instantly got 100x better when my friend texted me to let me know about free ice cream on Alumni Lawn!
