The Yik Yak himself paid campus a visit this week. Much to our disappointment, Rameses, our beloved mascot, chose to debase himself by cavorting around with the classless Yak as if this representative of the internet’s underbelly were somehow his equal. Rameses, you are good and pure. Don’t sell out.
Better than tents
