Oblation Run is more than just a tradition. They hold it with different themes or for different national issues every year.

I also heard that this is one of the requirements in order to join the frat. shrug.gif

Nope. Talktohand.gif

And... The Sunken Garden is my hated dugout during ROTC days... Just imagine standing under blistering heat with a heavy M-1 for half a day...
