As 2014 came to an end, students gathered to celebrate the coming of the new year. Various groups watched  the Times Square Ball drop at the celebration in New York City. Senior Ben Naber said, “I just got together and chilled with a couple of people.”

Junior Cristina Mariano and senior Kaylee Lloyd hosted a party where they celebrated the coming of 2015 with glasses of sparkling grape and apple juice and Hershey Kisses (instead of traditional champagne and kisses with significant others). Kaylee said, “We were on the wrong channel, so we ended up watching the Peach drop instead [of the Times Square Ball], accompanied by Pitbull singing something. There was no countdown on the TV so we just stared at the clock until it said midnight. I think that was the quietest the party got all night! Maybe it was a little unorthodox, but at least now we all have a legitimate reason to dislike Pitbull.”
