QUESTION #2
It’s Endicott’s Bluff the Reader Game, where you must tell truth from fiction. Which of the following stories is false?

- As part of Endicott’s “hands-on learning” model, all incoming first-year students must sign up to don the school mascot’s costume, Gully, and parade around campus, squawking like a seagull and pecking at students’ food in the dining hall.
