Title

Loyola Phoenix: Student streakers strike at Loyola

Description

This article by Thomas Ahnger discusses the streaking phenomenon at Loyola. Featuring a shot from behind of student who named himself as Al Abuff streaking "down the front steps of Mertz Hall" wearing only a hat, striped socks, and shoes, and said to be one of 200 students streaking on the Lake Shore Campus the day before.
The article discusses four students who "streak for a cause" by disrupting a talk by County Assessor candidate Edward Vrdolyak and holding pins for his opponent, a student who streaked on Wednesday through the cafeteria for $10, a streaker's club at Gonzaga Hall "sponsoring" streaking events, and a joke for a streaking contest that got out of hand and was becoming an officially sponsored race around the Lake Shore Campus.
