Mosh pit etiquette4/16/2023 ![]() ![]() But take heart, Smithies: the end of finals is near! We can do it and maybe it’s because we simply have no other choice. With papers, exams, readings and preparing for finals, the work never stops and, unfortunately, that means neither do our brains. The most prevalent symptom of April is sleep deprivation, which is inevitable. Whether you have the courage to do so is another story. April is a time when it gets warm enough to think about swimming outside. This is an activity every Smithie has to do at least once in their college years. Taking a dip in the Mill River (or in Paradise Pond if you dare). And whether it’s sunbathing, studying on a blanket or eating at the tables outside King/Scales, the Quad is one of the best places to enjoy April outside. One of the best parts of April is that we can enjoy being outside again-it’s so fun when we're all out in the Quad together. It’s not warm weather unless a bunch of Smithies are laying in the Quad in their swimsuits. And, as discussed before, if you do the same to someone else, see how they're doing. If you do get knocked in the jaw, don't consider it a personal attack. But also, don't make any situation personal or take it personally. Going after specific people in a mosh pit is considered bullying, and it will not be tolerated. I have a huge deal of respect for girls tough enough to hold their own in pits with big, burly brick wall-looking guys - so in case, these women don't give it right back to you for groping them, best be sure those guys will. So, you don't wanna be on the wrong end of that situation. I've heard stories about women getting groped in the pit, and the rest of the pit ganging up on the guy who did it (Go them). You respect others in the pit, regardless of race, gender, ethnicity or religion. That's just never OK, no matter how you can spin it. Moshing is NEVER an excuse for groping a woman. ![]()
