I don't plan on wearing a suit tonight... Maybe I'll be the odd ball!

Protip - wear suits to both. You'll never look over dressed for an event like this, but you'll sure feel like a shit head if you're cruising around as the only guy without a jacket. Nothing says "hai guiz, I've never worked in a professional environment" like that.
How about wearing a suit sans tie for the bizcas reception?
Just wear the suit. Is it really that big a deal?

As someone who couldn't attend the reception (but was planning to) due to a last minute detour, I am seriously upset at the lack of info/gossip/discussion of how it was tonight.

They may come fast, but if they don't, it doesn't mean anything.

This is the prime recruiting season, while firms don't want to miss out on candidates, you will continue to get CBs for several weeks as they fill their class. Don't read too much in to it when someone else has 5 CBs and you haven't heard from anyone yet.

Feeling like a mailman. Visiting every Hospitality Suite, stuffing multiple copies of resumes. Also being careful to stay away from the dip.

I feel super awkward walking into hospitality suites, some of them walk up and say hi to you. A few of them are already too busy talking to people and you just kind of stand around.
