Wiglaf, our newest lad, hails from a hovel outside the village of Pinwick, which makes Toenail look like a thriving metropolis. Being one of thirteen children, Wiglaf had a taste of dorm life before coming to DSA and he fit right in. He started the year off with a bang when he took a stab at Coach Plungett’s brown pageboy wig. Way to go, Wiggie! We hope to see more of this lad’s wacky humor in the years to come.

Eric hails from Someplace Far Away (at least that’s what he wrote on his Application Form). There’s an air of mystery about this Class I lad, who says he is “totally typical and absolutely average.” If that is so, how did he come to own the rich tapestry that hangs over his cot? And are his parents really close personal friends of Sir Lancelot? Did Frypot the cook bribe him to start the Clean Plate Club? And doesn’t Eric’s arm ever get tired from raising his hand in class so often?

This is a banner year for Baldrick. He is celebrating his tenth year as a Class I lad at DSA. Way to go, Baldrick! If any of you new students want to know the ropes, Baldrick is the one to see. He can tell when you should definitely not eat the cafeteria’s eel, where the choice seats are in Professor Pluck’s class, and what to tell the headmaster if you are late to class. Just don’t ask him the answer to any test questions.
