Subject: Enjoyed this
Enjoyable story reminding one not to overlook what appears to be the 'commonplace.' The narration was excellent.

Subject: Excellent short story
This is an excellent short story interwoven with lessons of character and humility. It also serves as a bit of a history lesson on the senior societies and traditions of Yale. Roger Melin does an excellent job reading this solo project for libribox.
