UMBC...An Honors University
Weee doggie...attended an Alum reception in the Public Policy Bldg Atrium last night and folks - it was stupendous! President Hrabowski has done so much for this school ...to be corny....it isn't funny! Back in my day there were a mere handful of buildings filled to capacity. The school grew in small spurts a few years post graduation - but there has been an explosion!!!!! - the last few years. IT truly is a remarkable place! One of the key points driven home last night was that the school is now becoming known for it's athletic department and for athletes WHO GRADUATE most WITH HONORS!...Quite a feat in these days where some facilities allow the athletics to overshadow the academics.
Next month I attend a dinner a few days before Thanksgiving at Martin's West for my High School Alum - B.P.I. (that's POLY).
Hope to see some folks there..
Stankass out...
