Have you called the 24 hour carol hotline yet?

There are still two more days to Dial-A-Carol. This annual event is the longest running tradition in University Housing (Snyder Hall has hosted it since 1960). Thanks to a group of mostly student volunteers, you can call anytime (24 hours a day) and request a song. The volunteer who answers will then sing your requested song to you. Each year thousand of calls are answered and the group keeps track of how many calls they receive, what states the calls come from, and even how many times Mariah Carey is requested.
