Chas Carey, CC '08, was the Editor-in-Chief of The Fed, director of College Rock for WBAR, a columnist for the Spec, a contributor to CPU's blog "The Columns," and co-Secretary of KCST (with Sam West), whose productions he has participated as either an actor or director since Spring 2005. He double-majored in Political Science and American Studies while minoring in Creative Writing. He was also one of the seven banqueteers in honor of the King of Spain.

Carey was known about campus for his oft-unintelligible laconic Boston accent, vacant stare, occasional outbursts of stupid rhetoric, love of Bombay Sapphire gin, monomanic taste in music, and peculiar enjoyment of Samuel Beckett. His politics are hard to pin down. A self-professed Republican and Catholic, although he was not exceptionally active in either community on campus. Plays the bass, the guitar, the piano, and Scrabble, none of them well. Uses the word "reductionist" a lot to describe things he doesn't like. Walks with a limp. Has juvenile arthritis in his right hand. Scowls too much.

Chas Carey is currently represented on Columbia's campus by Sam Reisman, who has studied his facial expressions and manner of speaking and often channels Chas in theater productions.
