TOMMY BARTH (BAMF '11) - Actually, Tommy is a Composition major in the College of Failed Aspirations (CFA). Contrary to popular opinion, he is not a dwarf. When he grows up, he wants to be tall enough to conduct the BSO. He can be found dancing like a fool in the front row of the Abbeys, where he will remain until he graduates.
MIN CHO (CAS/GRS '11) - After a long winded journey through the wild plains of Tennessee, this Texi-Mexican realized that life is better when you're just plain happy. When he's not in a lab manipulating bacteria and yeast, you can find him cooking a gourmet meal, running along the esplanade, or climbing the Barreca wall. Whenever you see him, the acceptable method of salutation is "OH NO MIN CHO!"
JESSE GALKOWSKI (CAS '13) - Spawned at the bottom of a deep underwater crevice just off the coast of Cape Cod, Jesse was taught to weave baskets out of sea-grass at a young age. With his large ears and even larger nose, he can listen with impeccable accuracy and is even able to "smell out" a sour note in any scale. In order to obtain such towering height, he must ingest at least 35 - 40 lbs. of food daily. Though his desired major is not offered at BU, Jesse aspires to become a full-time touring ventriloquist.
CHRIS GIORDANO (SED '10) - This Math Education senior is usually found these days in the halls of Malden High School teaching the youth about the wonders of math. When not at school, he can usually be found around campus either napping or working on something else for his classes.
JASON KAPLAN (CAS '12) - After waking up from the long journey from the city that never sleeps, this New Yorker came to the Abbeys with enthusiasm, charm and suspiciously cold hands.
Since his arrival, Jason has invested in some pocket hand warmers and is currently accepting gloves from anyone who is willing to get him some.
NATE MARTIN (CFA '11) - Nate grew up in the deep woodlands of Westford, Massachusetts, where he was raised by the bears. In the Fall of 2007, he emerged from the wild, sporting his favorite flannel, and came to Boston University to study Double Bass. When he is not in the CFA Dungeons, you will find Nate listening to music, watching movies, napping, or just chillin with his friends. Nate aspires to, one day, become an Ent.
PETER MORIARTY (ENG '11) - This strapping wee leprechaun hails all the way from Lexington, MA, where he was previously a member of the Lexington High School Madrigal Singers, Mixed Nuts and Zest, all co-ed A Cappella groups. He followed his nose to Boston University where he found the Dear Abbeys, and of course, a pot of gold. The teensy irishman celebrates his involvement with the Dear Abbeys by gurgling low notes and the occasional heel-click.
STEVEN ORANGES (SMG '12) - Don't let his citrus-y last name fool you - Steve means business...literally. A sophomore in the School of Management, Steve spends his days hitting the books and tackling the challenges of the financial world. At night, this Italian stallion is either rehearsing with the Abbeys, trying to learn the mandolin, or raving to techno music in his appartment.
EMMETT PATTON (CAS '10) - Known for his inappropriate dance moves and an array of sweater vests, this charming psychology major is actually part-giant, which would explain his enormous height and sexy low voice. But don't worry, he's gentle. When he's not singing with the Abbeys, Emmett is pursuing his career as a slashie (model/actor), which despite evidence to the contrary, will take off one of these days.
PAUL PINARD (CFA '10) - Because he is proud of his position as the Abbey with the northernmost hometown, Paul often gets angry when the other guys call sub-zero temperatures cold. As a violin performance major, he is always conflicted in his a cappella ideals, and often gets in trouble for bringing an instrument to rehearsal. His guilty pleasures include www.peopleofwalmart.com and his favorite song is "The Song that Never Ends." (hint hint, guys we should do this song!)
LUKE SAVOCA (CAS '13) - Equipped with flippy-floppies, Luke is bustin five knots on the high seas. When he's not tearin it up with Abbeys, this freshman who hails from the burbs of our nation's capital can be found gettin down to a funky beat or enjoying a sweet and bubbly glass of santana champagne. Luke is also a professional goose hunter but insists that every fallen animal be roasted rotisserie style, not boiled.
DANIEL TAYLOR (ENG '12) - A charming gentleman hailing from the Great State of Texas, Daniel can be found making sweet techno beats, attempting to play any number of random musical instruments, or, of course, singing his Texas-sized heart out with the Abbeys. He's always up for a game of football and when you talk to him, don't be thrown if he responds in a strange german accent.
DAVID VALBUENA (COM '13) - David moved up north to Boston all the way from South America, and he plans to survive winters with nothing but a poncho and Colombian coffee. While in Boston, not only has he experienced the joy of walking four miles a day, he has also recently discovered cheeseburger sliders and now plans to spend his days dwelling in a fort under his bed, throwing sliders at intruders who pass by.
KENT WYCKOFF (Soon to be COM '10) - Kent is a spontaneous individual. Anything that seems interesting or exciting, or just plain stupid...he'll probably do it. This might explain the irony of being the only member of the group also in a fraternity, even though he sings a line saying the Abbeys dislike frats. He is currently working to major in film and can be found in the pool, at the gym, watching movies, playing soccer, or in Canada...say hi if you want, but he just might answer you in Chewbaccan
