We used to have the formal seated dinners every night with the houseboys clearing plates and bringing dessert. We'd sing while they were clearing, and that's how the pledges learned the songs and we'd get our daily practice. Two- and three-part harmony!
Now the food is served buffet style and is casual - when you're finished you get up whenever you want and take your plate to the window. No having to excuse yourself to the housemother at the head table if you wanted to leave early.
Our yankee pledges were quite amazed at this at first. Heck, many of us were amazed. Good training, though.
Those were the days!
