Loker Professor of English and Adams House Master Robert J. Kiely used his time slot to "set the record straight" about his house.

"People say strange things about Adams House," Kiely said. Following this comment, Kiely read poetry to Adams residents, who were on stage dressed in pajamas and holding stuffed animals.

"What we do after dark in Adams House: the master goes to different entryways each night and reads a bedtime story," explained Kiely.

He then turned to tonight's lucky entryway. "You don't get to sit on my lap for the third poem if you're not nice," he said. And before the evening was over, students did end up on his lap.

Kiely also responded to the new plan to randomize the houses.

He insisted that Adams does not oppose all types of randomization, offering such suggestions as "randomized salmonella" in the dining halls and "randomized grades" to satisfy those who complain of grade inflation.

But the night belonged to Berry. On one comment card, a student wanted to learn more about the Nutrition Bites cards throughout the dining halls: "Is 'bites' a noun or a verb?"

Berry said he sometimes receives rhetorical questions from respondents: "The cod was green inside, Was it fresh?"
