I would assume it was maybe guys that stuck around in Ithaca for the summer or came back early...how many people were there?

Does ithaca have a football camp?

I would guess there were at least 50 out there and that's probably on the low end. Both fields were being used. The players were definitely in helmets, too. Couldn't tell if they were wearing full pads, though.

while the bills are at fisher does the team practice at east roch?

Super- go choke on a brick. Yes, that is a dig at you.

Jay kay. What is YOUR major anyway?

Seriously, Fredonia? IC's music school kicks the ass of Crane and Fredonia, and Fredonia's program is getting cut soon anyway. That's not just me being biased; IC's program isn't what it was in the 60s and 70s, but outside of Eastman and NYC it can't be beat in NY. One of the best educational schools as well.

As far as being a fruit, nothing makes a girl swoon like playin piano for her. But yeah, music kids can get prettttty dorky.

Max is one of the only "Fordies" I remember seeing regularly outside the halls of that building, and that may only have been because we worked together.  I swear 90 percent of those kids lived, ate and slept in Ford Hall or Whalen Hall or whatever they're calling it now.  Once they built that indoor connection to the library they never technically had to see the light of day at all.

I didn't know that about Fredonia getting their program cut.  One friend of mine from the hometown who became a Fordie is going there for grad school, hope he gets out before the axe falls.

IC does have a good music program.  A couple of the SUNY schools also have good music ed programs.

Music majors are the same everywhere.  They enter the music building as freshmen and reappear four or five years later.  the only other time you see them is if the theatre is in a seperate building.

unfortunalty that can be said about Parkies too...and the end of the building that has all the editing rooms doesn't have any windows.  I remember many days when I had no idea what time of day it was.

With all this music school talk MIOH figured Pep would chime in...

The long wait is almost over...

I used to walk into the Park school and think "wow, this must be what other people feel like when they walk in the music school".

Just waiting to be called out....once again. Pep finds that his posts are few and far between as Pep is spending long hours in Herrick Library shifting books. Gosh, that reminds Pep of his winning the New York Press Association Blooper of the Year in 1997 when an article that appeared in the Alfred Sun described the sidewalk brick layers as laying the pavers in "three three-hour shifts" in which he left the "f" out of shift. Pep feels like he's been shi(f)tting books.

As for music schools, they're all fine and all but Pep prefers AU's engineering students who can play trumpet, sousaphone or euphonium....and know and love D3 football.

Touche.  Hey, metaphorical show of Internet hands for those of us IC folk who took a random class in Dillingham Theatre aka DillyLand.  Had an economics class in there freshman year for some reason, then returned as a senior for Intro to Theatre. 

If Ford is like a high school composed entirely of amiable dorks, then Dilly is a high school composed entirely of drama kids who all hate each other.  I'm told it was like Real World: A Dark Underground Closet Somewhere.

Also, football note...I'm looking at the East region schedule for the month of September and there are almost zero compelling games on the sked before the SJF/IC and Hey Pride/Alf games on Sept. 22 (plus RPI/Hobart for our LLPP friends).  Maybe IC/Lyco on the 1st and Hey Pride/Union on the 8th but that's about it.

max, superman was a sports management major

[lineback]

then again in 25 years the tuition at a private school like Fish and IC will probably be $100,000 a year.   Cortlands will probably be about $38 a year.  So, it'll probably be SU for the young dubbz.

I think you mean 100,000 Yen since we'll all be using Chinese money by then.

Max had German 102 in those basement/dungeon rooms.


That was a fun class, but it's interesting how no one gets the point of foreign language exercises. Like he would ask the class to tell him what they want to do as a career, and people will look at him blankly and say "Um, how do you say architect?" or something. People, he doesn't give a rat's ass about whether you want to be an architect, he just wants you to speak German! You know how to say "dentist", so just say you want to be a f**king dentist!
