Showering/Moating

One of the “traditional events” on the 2nd Floor in Baker House among our group was the Moat — that body of water surrounding the chapel. Especially when I was Hall Chairman. We regularly baptized new colleagues to our group with a group kidnap of an unsuspecting Bakerite and group haul to the moat, sometimes just because or to let off steam or if he won too many games of Hearts which of course meant he was cheating or maybe the rites of passage for a newby in the dorm.
