President Marvin Krislov took part in the fun at December’s Organ Pump at midnight in Finney Chapel. Originally intended to present the organ as an instrument independent of religious services, Organ Pumps are a monthly tradition that contain a mix of complete wackiness and legitimate musical performance. Performances are by organ majors in the Organ Pump Committee of Oberlin.
