Well, here we are. We’ve bounced like barnacle geese almost all the way to the end of the semester, and I have no doubt that we will all successfully bounce our way to freedom. Nonetheless, the final stage of bouncing is always a very tense time, and regardless of the testimony of past experience it can be difficult to convince ourselves that we are not, in fact, doomed. It can feel like we are hanging on for dear life, not unlike this most unfortunate of-hang-gliders! I hope, however, that watching this super-stressful video during this already stressful time will encourage you. If that gentleman can survive being suspended in the sky above Switzerland with no safety harness for several minutes, then we too can survive. All we have to do is follow his example and hang on. And, with a little luck, we won’t end up with a broken wrist and/or torn bicep either, although I can’t make any absolute guarantees about that.

Sort of sincerely,

Clayton McReynolds

EGSA Secretary (a.k.a. Mister Secretary Sir, a.k.a. Minister of Misinformation)
