“Technically By Credits, I’m A Senior” Says 30-Year-Old Man At The 100 Days Dance

THE ROYALE — The time has finally come. Seniors, hold your loved ones close. Today marks the hundred-day countdown until the dreaded day when it goes from “the college experience” to officially becoming an alcoholic. The harbinger of employment beckons for its newest batch of victims. One student, however, has been able to dodge this fate a little bit longer than the past senior classes.
“Technically by credits, I’m a senior this year,” says Cho Pedunc (MCAS ‘18, MCAS ‘26), “So this year I was finally able to get my ticket. I am excited to get ‘sendy’ with my fellow eagles! I hope it’s as epic as Nashville!”
Pedunc’s Boston College journey started in 2014 as an accounting major, until he realized it wasn’t his calling, and pivoted to economics. Then computer science. Then Latin. After his fourth and final major switch, he landed on economics for the second time.
As Pedunc’s already extended Boston College experience came to a close, the COVID-19 pandemic struck. “COVID hit me pretty hard,” Pedunc explains, “and I thought five consecutive gap years would be enough for me to recover mentally. But, I’m back now and ready to finish college out strong for my wife and kids.”
Despite an attending crowd of 21 and 22-year-olds, Pedunc is looking forward to a night of youthful, collegiate debauchery. “My wife never lets me go out anymore after we had our second kid,” he notes, “so this is kinda my last opportunity to let loose.” He continued, “I’d like to think that I’m pretty in touch with my youthful side.” Pedunc told the Classic that he plans to use his fake ID that claims he was born in 1992 to “relive the thrill” and appear more hip and relatable to his peers.
At press time, Pedunc was seen entering his wife’s credit card information to book his senior spring break trip to Punta Cana.
