<p>Congratulations to Dan Gilbert, class of '05.</p>

<p>And yes, this is the very same Mr. Gilbert who wrote a very funny story while at UChicago on his streaking adventure through the Reg library.</p>

I have done a number of crazy things during my undergraduate career. Chicago is the kind of place that requires one to do crazy things now and then, or else go crazy. But no single adventure rivals my streaking experience at the Reg, not in terms of sheer audacity and subsequent satisfaction. Bounding naked through the throng of Reg-rats on that Sunday night, my teammates and I gave one brief, shinining "**** you" to the grim pressure of finals week at the University of Chicago. And then we went back to studying.
