Chas and Pam met at Cal Maritime in 2014. As Chas was a transfer student, and Pam was a true freshman, they didn’t have many classes together other than economics, so they didn’t get to know one another until the end of the first semester. They became close when they played Cards Against Humanity with mutual friends, and noticed a shared sense of humor. Chas later revealed that their economics class was not in fact the first time they met. Their first meeting was on a hillside cleanup, where Chas accidentally smacked Pam in the face with a branch trying to hand it to her. Repeatedly. Fortunately, Pam doesn’t remember the first meeting.
