ASU talent show
From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki
TIP kids aren't as talented as you might expect.
And the few who are most certainly never perform at the talent show, because what ends up happening, is two hours of sitting listening to first year girls who can't sing or play the flute very well. There's usually at least one bearable act. Anytime when a group of guys get up there and make fools of themselves is definitely one that you enjoy watching. For the most part though, the talent sucks.
After the suckiness comes a slideshow of pictures of people that you love looking like idiots, because really, that's what TIP is about. No one cries at the slideshow, its more of a pre-cry thing. It gets you in the nostalgic mood, wihtout raising the tears.
That's what the fourth year speeches are for. Every fourth year with a soul cries while doing this, even the macho Stephen Wise shed a tear in 05. Half the audience usually cries during this as well. Then, they are forced to cry their way back to Cone to face the ASU final day.
Some memorable 4th tears of term 1 2006 include:
(came as close to a 4th year as possible-3rd year)
Among the memorable 4th years of term 2 05 are: JT Schill
Some memorable 06 term 2 4th years include: Meredith Shoenig
(Should be fourth years)
(and the might as well be fourth years) Elizabeth Bonham
