Brown Freshmen 9.4 Pounds Less Fat Than Other Freshmen

Brown Freshmen 9.4 Pounds Less Fat Than Other FreshmenWhat, are they eating Snackwells instead of Doritos after getting lit now?

A new study by researchers at Brown finds that freshmen there only gain 5.6 or 3.6 pounds (men and women, respectively), less than the storied 15 our RAs gravely warned us about way back when. Brave Eunice Eun ‘09 offers herself up to USA Today as a student who did pork up the full amount (“It was really startling for my parents when I went back home for Thanksgiving break”), and then burned it off with eight months of vegetables and exercise.

So congrats, Eunice, and congrats, Brown. You make Yale’s yayo fiends look like the waffle fries line at Six Flags by comparison.
