No aulophobia here!
Welcome to the Flute and Piccolo section webpage! We are, indubitably,
the best section around these parts. Read on to discover the Flute or
Piccolo in you.
Current Members
- Hilary Baker-Jennings
- This Jones sophomore is a Harry Potter fanatic,
Medieval Studies major, flutist extraordinaire, and possibly
the cutest ninja-princess you've ever seen.
- Mary Cochran
- Often brings her daughter, Jamie, along for the ride and
lends the use of her pool-side residence for MOB recreation at
the end of the year.
- Jessica Cruz
- OC junior of Will Rice often
found to be obsessing over little details, and sometimes referred
to as Mistress of the Flute Legion of Doom.
- Jane Labyer
- Don't be fooled by her sweet and smiling countenance, this
Brown sophomore is an occasional spy/CIA agent and a deadly shot
with a flute pea-shooter.
- Kerri "Cap'n Obvious" Welsh
- This Baker alumna is a mini-historian for the section. Her
many skills include speech pathology and mothering one of The MOB's
youngest members.
If you're so cool, what do you do?
Anything that pops into our heads. Musically, we play the melody, of
course. When we don't have the melody, we dance in protest. We have
sectionals to congratulate ourselves for our perfect fingering and
tonal techniques. During MOBover on game day, we wash the windows of
stopped and parked cars, in a charitable fashion. We enjoy
section-bonding meals together, make plans to covertly take over Rice,
and dress up once during the MOB/football season — 2007's theme
was "A Flute LARP".
