Out of the frustration of finals week, Michigan Tech will be continuing on its semesterly “husky howl” this Saturday. Students wishing to participate should congregate around the Blizzard statue between the Library and the Electrical Engineering Resources Center. Participants will need to assume the sacred semi-circle position. Howling begins promptly at midnight and should be maintained for seven consecutive minutes. Be sure to have a grievance, for a more begrudged howl will have a greater impact on the success rate of Blizzard’s awakening.
Those unable to maintain consistent howling can assist the ceremony in other ways. Michigan Tech is looking for volunteers to assist in lighting Blizzard’s path to Spider Jesus in Baraga. Torches can be picked up starting now from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the 11th floor of the Mechanical Engineering Engineering Mechanics Building. Once Blizzard reaches Spider Jesus, they will let out their respective mating calls. Earplugs are advised until Blizzard has returned to his post and gone dormant. Students from the nursing program will be on-site in Baraga regularly this spring to assist the newest batch of Dogmen into the world.
Ecology professor Dr. Gerr Kaw provided the Lewd with his expert guess to the number of Dogmen that will be produced this semester, “If temperatures continue dropping we can expect a larger batch then last year, possibly 14!”
Dogmen are protected as an endangered Michigan species. Students traveling home for the holidays should watch out for Dogmen crossing signs while driving.
