Good fencers make good neighbors

·

As the ink dried on the 'Conditions of Participation and Release' form I signed to try my hand at dueling with the IU Fencing Club, I was already ridiculously out of place. Blue corduroys might be the right call if you're trying to score scene points, but they don't fly if you're fencing -- a sport centered on maximizing your agility.
