Yeah, can somebody fix that right side panel?  It has a bunch of songs under high holy canon that really are not high holy.  High holy canon is just American pie, stairway, forever young, possibly nightswimming and (for sesh1) ill make a man out of you.  The rest of those songs are just Canon.

Hey Luke - I saw that you added the student list to the page; as of right now it is a little hard to read. I don't know if it was your intent to format it that way (in order to save space?) but it is a bit overwhelming to look at. --[[User:Honoraryhugalujah|Anouk]]

Dates

I think the site was from 1985, because when I double-sessioned in 08, it was its 23rd year.--Kukulkan 08:56, 17 August 2008 (PDT)

Squirrels

By the way, if you throw a Frisbee at one at the proper time, they will leap through the air. KяYP did this once at 06.2. It was actually kinda funny. - User:Fred3426

There was at least one squirrel at 08.2 that was covered in red blotches and missing about half of its fur. Also, I once saw two campus police chasing a squirrel. Apparently, it was "sick". --LordZeebmork 10:38, 21 August 2008 (PDT)

Fixing SAR's page up

It seems like the page needs a lot of updating. Anyone who's been there longer (I only did 09.1) want to help fix it up? -User:PHS_Philip

Yeah, can somebody fix that right side panel? It has a bunch of songs under high holy canon that really are not high holy. High holy canon is just American pie, stairway, forever young, possibly nightswimming and (for sesh1) ill make a man out of you. The rest of those songs are just Canon.

Dorms

I'm changing it, but am I ceriously the only person to notice we have 2 dorms sections?

Our article doesn't suck

At what point do we get rid of the 'your article sucks, (from your friends at Lancaster)' box at the top of the page?

Things we could improve

Ok, our article's not perfect.

Things I see we can improve that I wouldn't feel confident improving: -Canon (I'd rather someone with a more intimate knowledge of tradition did this) -The food (section works as is, but we could talk about all the different locations in the dining and stuff. If nobody else does, I'm bringing a notebook to band camp solely to give the dining hall the article it deserves).

Student List

Should we start a student list in the page? --IrisGooGoo (talk) 07:14, 6 August 2018 (EDT)

Hey Luke - I saw that you added the student list to the page; as of right now it is a little hard to read. I don't know if it was your intent to format it that way (in order to save space?) but it is a bit overwhelming to look at. --Anouk

I'm going to put it in alphabetical order now.
