so all this week we've had IEOR related activities...
monday there was the thankathon where we wrote thank you notes to alumni that donated money to the college of engineering
wednesday night we had our annual student-faculty banquet(SFB)...it was great...everything went smoothly
& thursday was "IEOR day" of Engineering Week on campus...we sold BBQ & shirts & had a carnival game in which you won goldfish & betas were the big prize...
i have really random quotes from the SFB:
jamie: how funny would it be if professors & GSIs had to vote on the worst student
ramteen (GSI): yea we kinda already do that with grades....but sometimes i'm thinking do i want to pass this person or not & have to deal with them another semester whent hey retake it....sooo it's a C- for them
jamie: i never thought of that...maybe we could try to get through school that way...i should try that on my Ph.D. maybe professors will be so sick of me that they'll just give it to me
(erick won this prize from the raffle)
rick (gsi): well that's the only reason why i'm talking to you...i want that prize (stuffs the big box in his jacket)
(erick or me?): wow that's not obvious
rick: no no i'm just happy to see you
jamie:so how secure with your masculinity do you have to be to own a mini
rick (who owns a mini): very i get hit on a lot by other guys
(the rest i'm not sure who said)
so uhh how do you & your partner fit in that mini?
there's a masculinity check on the paperwork & a gay box
jamie: did you get the british flag?
rick: didn't have enough masculinity for that one
they measure for that one...
i didn't quite make the 12 inches
there were other great conversations, but i can't quite remember at the moment...
& i end this blog w/ a cute pic of the ieor gang (doug, alex, jon, con, erick):
