Four hours ago

From Gina Goodhill, University of Southern California, Los Angeles
About 140 students gathered in Annenberg Auditorium amidst free pizza, cake and popcorn to watch the returns come in. The room was decorated with red, white and blue balloons, and a large whiteboard sat in the corner, displaying a map with stars marking the projected outcomes for each state. The crowd was lively and engaged, cheering slightly when John Kerry was projected the winner of a state.
At a small table littered with popcorn and pizza crusts, Charles LePere, a graduate student studying electrical engineering, sat with his back facing the television. "I have a huge midterm tomorrow, but I can't turn myself away from the election," he said. He was on his way to the library when he saw the giant screen in Annenberg Auditorium and decided to check it out. "That was four hours ago," he laughed.
