After 27 years as Emergency Management Coordinator Doug Cox experienced the mildest 'Black Monday' he can recall.
"I wouldn't say black Monday was very black," Cox said.
Only two incidents were called into Public Safety Monday, the notorious celebration night of new Greek members, according to Cox.
"It was very surprising," Cox said. "Monday was a pleasant surprise."
Campus Living and Community Development and the greek life coordinators focused on making sure bid night would not be out of control this year.
Cox said the greek leadership at each chapter on campus were more engaged about preventing an out of control night. There was also a conversation had between Director of Public Safety Angela Nally and greek life coordinators on ideas to help with Black Monday.
PJ Mitchell, greek life Coordinator and Coordinator of Alcohol Initiatives, came up with one idea: students going out found a pretzel truck at the corner of Anderson Street and Locust Street.
As for the rest of the week, on Thursday morning many sororities and fraternities woke up to their front lawns covered by toilet paper.
Sophomore Olivia Traynor looked out her window at Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority's lawn to see trees full of toilet paper.
"I don't think it was meant to be malicious, but it is a pain to clean up," Traynor said.
Public Safety was unable to comment at the time concerning the vandalism.
