Once everyone arrived, the Class of 2028 proudly presented the night’s entertainment: a hilarious mockumentary about TAC dating. Students were rolling with laughter at the witty, creative observations the freshmen had made about the romantic culture at the College. “I’ll say one thing: they’re not wrong,” joked Greg Maynard (’26).
After a few dances to get things moving, Gabe Livingston (’28) took the mic to emcee the annual swing dance competition. Each couple was announced by name as they walked onto the floor. “There was a lot of talent,” Gabe said. “The judges had a hard time!” In the end, Sam Livingston (’26) and Teresa Cole (’27) took first place. The real joy of the competition, however, was the dancing itself. “I entered just to have fun,” said Bernadette Pfeiffer (’28). “That’s all that matters to me.”
As the night went on, dancing continued, and students made the most of the Class of 2025’s last dance. “It’s bittersweet,” said Teresa Bingham (’26). “We’ve made so many memories with them, it’s hard to say goodbye.” Many students stayed a little longer than normally, spending time with their favorite seniors. “I’ve only known them for a year,” said Madeline Rogers (’28). “But they’ve taught me so much and I’m going to miss them.”
