The TI Legend The Tiger Inn Newsletter Spring, 2016 Celebrating 125 years!

On February 20, 2016 over 200 Tiger Inn alumni, partners, and spouses came to celebrate TI’s 125th anniversary at the Westin in Princeton. Members arrived from up and down the eastern seaboard and represented sections from 1949 through 2015. John Bernard ‘49 was the oldest alumnus and outgoing President Grace Larson ‘16 and Vice President Cole Lampman’ 16 were the youngest in attendance.

During Hap Copper’s ‘83 welcome remarks, a spontaneous contest of TI chants broke out among the younger and older alumni. The energy in the room became palable as a chant came from one side of the room and then the other, both different but the same in the strong feelings for Tiger Inn.

Dinner and dancing followed. The music of The East Coast Band and a cameo appearance of The Blues Brothers got people on thier feet and the dance floor was rocking.The evening finished back at Tger Inn as buses shuttled people back and forth from the hotel to the club, and back again. Tiger Inn was open and on-tap for current members, alumni, and guests to celebrate TI’s 125th annivsary.

This past year has been a great and historic year for the club as we have grown from the issues that led to tumultuous times in the recent past. I’m writing you all to introduce myself as the next Presi- dent of Tiger Inn and to assure you that the club is set to thrive again in 2016.

I am proud to share with you that we have added 113 new members this year, a group consisting of 101 mem- bers of the Class of 2018 and 12 members of the Class of 2017. We are thrilled about the outcome of Bicker and couldn’t be more excited about these new members and the future of our club.

Additionally, our membership is as accomplished as ever athletically. Brett Harner ’17, Ray O’Donnell ’17, Jordan Laster ’17, and Jonathan Schleifer ‘18 recently competed in the 2016 NCAA Championships. Harner performed particularly well as he became the 9th All-American in the history of the Princeton Wrestling Team, capping off a great season for all of our wrestling Back row left to right: Connor Moore (president), comrades. We also are fortunate enough to have several Jeffrey Williamson (house manager), Chris Kennedy members of both the Men’s and Women’s (treasurer). Front row left to right: Joy Zou (saftey chair), Susan Zhou (vice president) and Amanda teams. The Women’s team finished their season as 2015 Rutherford (social chair). Ivy League Champions. Our membership also features many of the players on both the Men’s and Women’s Water Polo teams. The Men’s team finished their season ranked 10th in the country and the Women are working towards another successful season as I write this letter. The Class of 2018 consists of several members who play sports that previously were not represented in the membership, including members of the Men’s Team, Women’s and Men’s teams.

I’d like to take a moment to introduce our newly elected undergraduate officers, who I could not be more excited to work with for the upcoming year. I am a former football player concentrating in American History. Susan Zhou is our new Vice President who studies biology with a focus in global health. She also serves as the Vice President of the Student Health Advisory Board. Our new social chair is Amanda Rutherford, a coxswain on the Women's Open Weight Crew team and a Woodrow Wilson School major. Jeff Williamson, our House Manager, is a history major with a certificate in diplomacy. He has just finished his third season on the swim team and loves to travel. Chris Kennedy is TI's new Treasurer. He is in the Economics department and is a captain on the Men's Volleyball Team. Finally, our new Safety and Communications Chair is Joy Zou who is in the ORFE depart- ment with certificates in Engineering Management Systems and Environmentalism.

My primary goal for the upcoming year is to maintain the fun and welcoming environment estab- lished by our predecessors. I appreciate the trust you put in us, and look forward to the year ahead!

Thank you,

Connor Moore ‘17
