The Stute

Why I write puzzles

Hi, I’m Stephen (part of a stairway + female chicken) Pachucki (anagram of “Pikachu + c”). Most of my friends know me as the person who writes trivia and makes puzzles.

One last big win

I’ve never been the biggest fan of writing, but as a senior, I wanted to use this space (mostly for some pictures) to thank the people who made my time here and at The Stute so meaningful.

Hugs now, tears later

I came to this campus wanting a fresh start from the little hometown I grew up in. The first people I met at Stevens were graduating members of the class of 2024 and 2025.

Stop and Smell the Roses

It wasn’t until my senior year that I discovered my favorite place to eat in Hoboken. If you’ve ever been to 4th and Willow, there is a small Cuban restaurant called Chango that has the best empanadas and iced coffee in the known universe (not sponsored).

Never fade out, live on

“I always see you around.” 

As someone who’s lived on campus for all four years, it really is my home. I love seeing friendly faces around campus and at events.

What story are you writing?

What a strange time it is for us seniors. We’re at a threshold moment in our lives, which is always a little frightening.

Thank you to my pookies

When I started my education here, I only knew one other person that was going to this school. Unfortunately, with us being in different majors and having completely different schedules every semester, it was inevitable that we would go down different paths.
