Drinks will be sold at the Send-Off, but onlyfor students over 21, and there will be anas-yet-undecided limit on how many drinks a personcan buy.
"We'll be carding heavily," Kirchler said.
Cornell Dean of Students John L. Ford said thatif the Senior Send-Off became an annual event thatstarted to attract students away from Slope Day,it would be worth the effort put into it.
"Slope Day is a little more raucous, than wewould like to see it," Ford said. "[The Send-Off]is an attempt to be a wholesome, tamecelebration."
Ford said that the University does not condoneSlope Day, but does provide some portablebathrooms to prevent the restrooms in nearbybuildings from becoming congested.
"That's the minimalist approach of what we cando," he said. "We used to set up the stage andprovide sound equipment...[but] we've banned themusic."
