The Foresters

The foresters are made up of Alex, Austin, Myles, Kainoa, Chris, Big Alex, and even though they aren't from Forest and may never be TRUE foresters, we tolerate Kate and Bri Briy as memebers.
Althought the Forester name wasnt concieved until several days later, the foresters themselves came together on the Historically significant date of September 20th, at around 9pm. Why is it a historically significant date do you ask? Because it was when the foresters were born.

The night of Sept. 20th coincides with the first night incoming freshmen to Souther Oregon University spend the night in thier new dorm rooms. Although the foresters didnt know eachother very well, they didn't sleep very well that night. Instead, the would be foresters gathered in the hall and decided to explore the then new area. As a group they walked around campus, eventually making it down to the local 7/11 and buying beer. The alcohol was consumed off campus, after which the foresters proceeded back to the forest hall floor 1 and attempted socializing with the more timid residents. Although the story gets fuzzy from this point on, it is certain that more substances were consumed and the night did not end until early in the morning.
This would be the event that brought the foresters together.
However, the event that would bring them infamy didnt come until several days later.

The Ninjas

On the night of September 22nd, the powers that be held a school wide Capture the Flag game on campus. Not satisfied with merely playing the game, the foresters decided that they were going to win and camoflaged themselves according to the natural enviroment. The decision was to wear ninja suits, considering that most if not all Foresters have honed ninja skills to begin with. So it came to be that all of the SOU freshman class would, from then on, associate the Forester name with deadly cloaked figures hiding in the shadows ready to strike.

Pranks, Annoyances and Loudness

Becuase of the nature of the Foresters, and how they were formed, it comes naturally that they are inclined to pull pranks and other mischief, at the same time not be viewed favorably by the powers that be. On the first night the dorms were occupied, the Foresters were caught by two RAs on the second (girls) floor drinking and being loud in one of the rooms. Several days later, member Big Alex would gain celebrity status after crashing on his longboard on campus and bleeding all over the fucking place. To show the RA on the Forester's floor, Josh, that they were not afraid, and even to invite him into the circle of panks, the foresters took a spare matress and ductaped it to the outside of the RAs door, while he was inside.
This list goes on. The foresters were caught hanging an apprehended bra on a door by the senior RA, writing crude phrases on paper on this same door (taken down by the same RA), placing condoms in innapropriate places and other such acts of senseless humor, as well as being generally loud and obnoxious.
