Gelatin gladiators

Pierson Master Harvey Goldblatt (left) and Jonathan Edwards Master Gary L. Haller defended the honor of their respective residential colleges during a gelatin wrestling match on April 26. The all-in-fun, hand-to-hand combat was part of Pierson Day, an annual celebration marking the end of spring classes. (Rumor has it the white-suited Haller won.)
