Central Board
Fireside ChairsThe Fireside Chairs are the glue that holds Willard together, the cement that keeps building bricks in place, the sticky marshmallow gooeyness that makes a s'more delicious. Fireside chairs arrange for cool and informative speakers, including faculty members and Willardites themselves, to talk about incredibly mind blowing things for all the Willard community to hear. Topics range from beer-making to genetics to how to dance the Polka. For all they do, it's hard not to get emotional about the Fireside Chairs. The Fireside Chairs are members of the Executive Board. |

Georgia McKayHometown: Nashville, TN Major: Art History Favorite Quote: "All good nights end at BK." |
Danni BrancaccioHometown: Vancouver, WA (Not Canada!!) Major: Undecided/Psych maybe? Favorite Quote: Anyway, like I was sayin', shrimp is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, shrimp-kabobs, shrimp creole, shrimp gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple shrimp, lemon shrimp, coconut shrimp, pepper shrimp, shrimp soup, shrimp stew, shrimp salad, shrimp and potatoes, shrimp burger, shrimp sandwich. That- that's about it.

About Georgia: Georgia is kindof a big deal. She likes art, music, cats, Diet Mountain Dew, the word "bro," and the CTA red line. She loves Northwestern, but misses the south (mainly ice tea and a climate that does not cause her seasonal depression). Her middle name is Snowden. About Danni: Danni enjoys firesides with a fiery passion. She also enjoys bad puns. She hopes to see each and every Willardite come to experience firesides along with her, because, well, they pretty much rock. When not attending firesides Danni can be found wistfully thinking of the mountainous Northwest and watching old Friends Episodes. |

He is also really looking forward to DM and getting as many people involved as possible. About Sean: Sean loves awkward dancing photos, sugary breakfast cereals, and the Woo-shack in general. He is really, really excited for DM 2008. |

Richard FreemanHometown: Medina, Ohio Major: Who knows? Favorite Quote: "I don't know about you, but 12:15 is a little early for a pony ride!" |
Jenny ChengHometown: Mt. Laurel, New Jersey Major: MMSS & Economics Favorite Quote: "I know lots of Jewish terms! Dreidel, Hannukah... wait- a dreidel is that toy that spins, right? so, then, what's that other toy, the one that holds the candles?" |
|
|
About Richard: I enjoy frequenting White Hen and making friends with its interesting employees. Some might say that there are two types of people: those who are made for publicity, and those who aren't. I guess I'm just one of those people who is. About Jenny: In my spare time, I enjoy missing flights home to New Jersey because of the fine gourmet selections provided by the dollar menu at McDonald's airport venues. |

HistoriansWe collect pictures of all things Willard...therefore we will pretend facebook stalking you is in our job description. That's right, we're always a bad girl, always. |
|
 |
Sarah MalinHometown: Rye, NY Major: International Studies and Anthropology Favorite Quote: backpack: $20. being with people who understand you: priceless...we want the funk |
Kristen CragwallHometown: East Grand Rapids, MI Major: Theatre and Sociology Favorite Quote: "This is the best thing I've ever done with my life!" (upon putting chocolate milk on life cereal. ok, so my favorite quote is really just a bad pun...) |
|
|
About Sarah: Sarah loves taking pictures and judges people when their desktop is not a photo they took themselves. She's also really excited about using her historian position as a reason for her parents to buy her a new camera...mwahahahaa. About Kristen: Kristen can't work her digital camera, sucks at emailing/formatting pictures, and doesn't actually live in Willard. She does, however, enjoy reading Jesse's oversized history book while posing for the camera, which is enough to outweigh those other minor details. She also thinks it's lame when people make sarcastic jokes about themselves not being sarcastic. |

Jessica DinneenHometown: The ROCKville, MD Major: Premed is the closest description I can give Favorite Quote: "Hating the Yankees isn't part of my act. It is one of those exquisite times when life and art are in perfect conjunction." - White Sox Owner Bill Veeck |

About Jessica: Proud to be part of the legacy of the Js, Jessie hopes to continue Willard's amazing track record. There for the highs and lows and Jared freakouts of last year, she hopes the draft didn't just help the Pats and that Willard will soon have some fresh talent to dominate the IM scene in the 07. Oh, oh yes... we'll play. About Jeffrey: Aside from wanting to be like Allen Iverson in every possible way, Jeff's other life aspiration consists of producing Jeff Krimmel fatheads for every adoring young fan of his. Most importantly, Jeff would love to see everyone in Willard share in the wealth of intramural championship t-shirts next year. |
