In Chinese philosophy, the masculine or positive principle (characterized by light, warmth, dryness, activity) of the two opposing cosmic forces into which creative energy divides and whose fusion in physical matter brings the phenomenal world into being. 2. According to Phi Kap folklore, a confused Connecticutian (also referred to as "Gao") who traversed the world in search of the next basketball game, cucumbers, and all that was free. Historians theorize his life ended when he entered into the halls of computer science.

Nate Kelley '00 Strafford, PA Chem. Eng/Biology Though technically an MIT student, you would think that he attends Wellesley based on the amount of time he spends there. And while this might be expected of a second term Senior, he has somehow pulled it off for the last couple years despite double majoring. He even gets 8 hours of sleep every night. How does he get all his work done? The trick is, he doesn't. But, he has gotten enough done to do well in all his classes and has secured a job just two blocks away at the consulting firm, Bain and Company. So, while he'll be graduating this year, he won't be straying too far from this flock.

Jason Lawrence '00 Manhasset, NY Mech. Eng./Music Wookiee here. While Jason has often tried to lose the nickname, it wasn't to be. You see, this man has more body hair than a full-grown gorilla, not to mention he's been known to rip the arms off anyone who tries to mess with his classical music. In addition to being strong and hairy, he is also much smarter than your average Wookiee, double majoring in Mechanical Engineering and Music. He even has enough motor control to master the violin and beat difficult video games. And while he may ditch his nickname as he enters the working world, he will always be Wookiee here.

Dan Moon '00 Wilmington, DE Mech. Eng. Though we may be saying farewell for now, we expect to be hearing Dan's bellowing laugh again second term next year. You see, he'll be coming back after a term of working on top-secret projects at Los Alamos (probably building weapons of mass destruction). And while you wouldn't expect that from this seemingly gentle, church going chap, we know that Dan Moon is really evil. So beware of his hidden motives. In fact, while he's supposedly returning for his Masters, we know the real reason this former Chorallaries singer is coming back is that he just can't live without us.

Oludare Ogunyemi '00 Seattle, WA Chem. Eng. Opinion After Opinion spews from the mouth of this man deservedly titled "The Judge". He can frequently be found evaluating modern movies and music with insightful criticism such as "It sucks", "It's terrible", or the highly complimentary "It wasn't bad". He has a weakness for the classics, though, with all of his favorite movies being in black and white, and his musical preferences performed before the disco era. So what separates Oludare from a grouchy man heralding from your parent's generation? He can play Quake.

This Phi Kap is bound for success.

Quincy Scott '00 Graham, WA Comp. Sci. Ever dream about a career in the WWF? If you have, you've found a mentor in Quincy. For, despite his degree in computer science and extensive experience on Wall Street, he can't resist the call of the wild. So, after graduation, this man will try to use his varsity basketball skills to put the smack down on the WWF and his former Social Chair skills to win over the fans. And how can he fail when he's been practicing the people's eyebrow and the people's elbow all year. In fact, the only thing he still needs to be a truly great wrestler is a ho train.

Vijay Shah '00 Canandaigua, NY EECS Vijay Shah is a shapeshifter _ able to alter his appearance and nature when called upon. At one moment, he is Net Boy, electronics genius and master of Linux and Windows hacking, Perl, Java, and any other computer programming garbage. . . I mean useful languages you can think of. The next instant he becomes "The Shark", the greatest pool player to ever live! At other times, this "Western New Yorker" becomes a talented musician, kicked back on a couch strumming a classic Metallica hit. In closing: Vijay good, Spice Girls bad.
