Hello All,
For the first time I see the words "institutional identities" in the
argument. While I would hope my alma mater, RPI, is not solely
identified by hockey . . . perhaps engineering/science AND hockey?
:-), any argument has my backing as long as it helps defeat this
ill-conceived (i.e. stupid) resolution.
Let's hope the vote goes this way.
