Tie Guard

Tie Guard are a group of students who maintain a 24-hour watch over the Pink Tie whenever it is hung up for Orientation Week.

History
Since it was rumoured that the tie would never be replaced should anything else happen to it, in 1994 a student named Marco Koechli camped in front of the MC for all of Orientation Week, in order to deter any would-be thieves/vandals. Ever since then, whenever the Pink Tie is hung during Orientation Week, a group of students known as the Tie Guard maintain a 24-hour guard and watch over the tie. Tie Guard has since become a 24-hour information station during Orientation Week, with all members trained in first-aid in case of injuries.
