ChessersSuite was a suite in
EastDorm (rooms 102/4) that officially started in the Fall 2000, although it existed in people's minds long before then (and actually won several dorm awards before it even existed). The four original Chesserians were
AlexBobbs,
JoshMiddendorf,
MicahSmukler, and
DanielLowd, who all lived together in E104 while maintaining the legendary
ChessersLounge in E102. This arrangment persisted until Spring 2002, when
ChessersSuite was divided into the
ChessSide and the
CheckersSide and people slept in both.

We would list all the ChessersPlayers here but then it would take forever for you to load this page, especially if we included all the (former) PreFrosh we addicted.
