We hope that this guide has helped answer any questions that you have about surviving Rush. Rush is still far off, and we realize that you're probably not too concerned yet, but it's never too early to get a head start. During the summer, we'll have some roof fests at the house, and maybe some brothers in your area will have a party.

And, if we have caught your interest, please come visit during Rush ­ we'd love to meet you! If you have any questions, feel free to call the house here in Boston (yes, call collect if needed!) at (617) 437-7795. Or e-mail any questions to sbotta@mit.edu.

Benjamin Kim '01

Queens, NY

Mechanical Engineering

Ben, our 2001-2002 President, was the best president we've ever had. He's a very skilled negotiator, making offers that no one can refuse. He's so good that no one bothers us anymore, not even the cops. Our mail is always on time and even our food delivery service never messes up our orders anymore. He's so good with our neighbors that many of them come by just to see him. Although it is strange when they kiss his hand and call him "Godfather". Some people are just weird like that.
 

Kipp Whittaker `02

Fremont, CA

Mechanical Engineering

Kipp, version 2.4.

PKT's final version of Kipp features a slightly smaller ass and a chillin' west coast attitutde. We have, however, retained the masterful flare for Mechanical Engineering in KIP version 1. And while Kipp doesn't help us in defeating our rivals in IM basketball, he did help us secure an IM Bowling Championship in his time. And when it comes to mackin' and smackin', none fare better than our laid back swinger. That is, until girlfriend version 4 comes out.
