    This gave me flashbacks of me as a kid trying to hide behind the DRAPES - with my shoes clearly visible. Not my brightest moments.
    Just as a heads up - the ALUMNA clue should be singular (the plural is ALUMNAE).

      Thanks! That's what I get for not taking Latin and (mis)using Google Translate

      Nice theme! 11A got me for a sec… GPT 4? Gemini? Crosshare needs a different font 😂
      • DRitters constructor · 2024-03-18T14:17:06.223Z
        That was actually one of the reasons I wrote the clue - font misdirect ;)

        Fun, thank you! The SE gave me some trouble, partly because of the 25D that @SporcleMirror mentioned. As I understand it, ALUMNA is singular and feminine, while "grads" implies plural — which would either be ALUMNI (which is the right length) for masculine (which is also used for mixed gender) or ALUMNAE for feminine. Also, Wesleyan has been co-educational for years (1970s?) so it was more challenging (this didn't make it wrong of course).

          I fixed the plural issue - but while Wesleyan University is coed, Wesleyan College is not. I edited the clue to specify this, though. Thanks!

            Today I learned! Thank you. I knew about Illinois Wesleyan (closer to home for me) but not Wesleyan College.

          21d: amnio is not amino
          • DRitters constructor · 2024-03-18T14:19:42.335Z
            Thank you. I can't tell you how many times I saw this word and it never registered with me that it was not AMINO :( Fixed the clue

            Lot's of fun, DRitters! Thanks!
