Gumby + Friends

Backstory: So on the Thursday before Working Weekend the Switchboard students go together to brainstorm what they wanted to plan for the big day. Their idea was to dress Brent '14 up as Gumby; hand out ringpops and pub mix; and ask students and alumni "What can you teach Gumby?" and then pin these answers onto Gumby. So that's what they did.
