Transcript | Murky water draws students in leaping into the Unkown Millions of dollars was spent last year to make the Cullen Family Plaza Fountain a functional monument and this year UH students claimed it as their own. The fountain has become a place for fraternities to baptize their pledges, for students to relax and where anyone can become a member of the unsanctioned "Under the Bridge Club." No one can exactly tell you how or who started it, but many students know about this club and some have even braved all (since it is against university rules swim in the fountain), jumped in and paddled their way under the bridge to become a member. "I don't exactly know "I wanted to do something unforgettable, ♦.," said Sophomore Mary Shultz why I did it. I was just told about the club and late one night me and some friends jumped in the fountain and swam under the bridge," said Sophomore Meredith Livingston. If you explained the ritual of joining the "Bridge Club" to someone who's not a member, it may seem silly. "I wanted to do something that was unforgettable and jumping in the Cullen Fountain and swimming under the bridge was truly orgasmic," said Sophomore Mary Scheltz. And so starts another UH tradition, it may not be as prestigious as the Cougar Paw or the celebratory siren but it's a lot more fun.- JoAnn Stephens ing under the bridge, liter- lly , of the Cullen Family laza Fountain was what the ledges had to do for initia- tion into the unsanctioned "Bridge Club."
