Roll Call

From the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search

Roll Call is an activity held at Texas. Each RC group must prepare an elaborate dance to a preassigned song and showcase it to the entire TIP staff and campers. This is also a competition. An TA usually Emcee's the ceremony, providing entertainment and time between acts. During long breaks between acts or when judges are making their decisions, TIPsters are encouraged to come up and tell jokes. In 2008, some TIPsters were asked to do impressions of their RC's and Instructors. This was shortly thereafter disbandoned due to the non-tipropriateness off the acts. Songs selected have ranged from recent hits, to ageless classics; and until recently, male RC groups usually get songs sung by female artists, and female RC groupw usually get songs by male artists.

Roll Call is also featured at UGA campus, instead of a Lip Syncing competition. Songs are chosen by the RC groups rather than assigned. It occurs on the last Sunday of the term.
