Oberlin Review – Kelsey Fuller
Oberlin is not known for being normal. Even after a decade and a half, Drag Ball is still going strong; the 2006 fiesta went off without a hitch. Doors opened at 9:30 p.m. to an unrecognizable Wilder. Students crowded the main lobby in anticipation of this year?s party, themed as ?Pandora?s Box.? Lights, dance floors, runways and decorations had transformed Wilder into four floors of partying. Pretty much every room was taken over. The hullabaloo cost top dollar, ringing up at over 28,000 dollars, and it showed.
The ?Sco was turned into a hip-hop club, the Rathskeller was a coat room, the lobby was infested with ?80s music, room 115 was a caf?, the D?caf? was a karaoke bar, and in case of any problems, the Peace Keepers could be found in room 204. The Peace Keepers, trained Oberlin students, also spent the night running around making sure everyone was having a safe time.
