Naked Cornell Traditions: Pool

Naked Cornell Traditions: Pool
Yes, this is part of a series.  Yes, there are more.  Yes, it is cold here. 

One night, past midnight, you feel a need for a walk.  So, you venture down the paved pathway behind Risley Residential College.  And, low and behold, to your shock and horror, there are naked people in a kiddie pool.

Welcome to Pool.

According to the information on the official Risley webpage, (why they would post this publicly is very much a mystery), Pool was a tradition started no less than 27 years ago.  Because who doesn't want to get wet in the comfort of their own dorm.  In the hallway.  Because they miss Florida. 

There are also very important rules associated with Pool, one of which is "No bodily fluids in the pool... unless there's enough for everybody and everybody wants some."  Yeech.  There is one good thing to say about the bubble bath variation on Pool-- soap kills germs.
