RPI 2022 Off-season: Surely, We Deserve Better

[rpi82]

In Dr. Schmidt's introductory message this morning to the RPI community he made sure to mention that he still has RPI-authored textbooks and his BRFO cowbell (which puts him ahead of me, I think my cowbell was lost when my elderly parents' house was cleaned out). I'll take those as messages to the alumni that he remembers and cherishes RPI traditions. I'm hopeful.

As someone said before, he at least is aware of the existence of the hockey team, which is more than can be said of his predecessor

President Dr. Schmidt needs a poster in his office of "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley."

I think that they disappeared a couple of years after I entered in 1964. They were still around in 1965, but I don't recall them after that. They were not around when I was in grad school starting in 1968.

Hugh Jackman had a life in English musicals before he was Wolverine.
I used to think, "Who knew Wolverine could sing?"
