SCI FROSH WEEK 

The best week of your life in Engineering at Queen's, filled with fun, friends, funky FRECs, and possibly a little bit of greased pole. After this, its all GPA-less first term winters and failing 112. Here are some important things/definitions you need to know, the primer to the primer if you will:

FREC:
A supreme god-like being; the coolest people you will ever meet. Can often be found slamming $500 GPAs (see below) on the ground and sporting kilts, pain chains, and work boots.

FROSH:
So so silly. They know nothing and think they know everything, little do they know they will never be a year.

ENGCUT:
The most stylish accessory one can ever sport. Every other frosh at Queen's is forever envious of the eng frosh's immaculate cut, although they will never admit to it.

NURSES:
We love them.

GPA:
Golden Party Armor. Only the best and brightest frosh will be permitted to don and dye the most beautiful symbol of Queen's Engineering, permitted they pass first term exams (good luck).

CLARK HALL:
The center of the universe. Home of Ritual and a hopefully a few fun nights for future frosh:)
ArtSci Kid 1: Bro, that SCI FROSH WEEK is so cool.

ArtSci Kid 2: I know bro, we will never compare.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.

You think me an old fogeyand an old tory, his thoughtful voice said. I saw three generations since O’Connel’s time. I remember the famine.
