It’s Time to Take the Giving Plunge
I'm a strong believer that those who are more fortunate should give back to the community surrounding them. To that end, I give to Kiva, the MS Society, The American Cancer Society, and soon back to the college that I owe so much of my fortunate situation to. This means giving a significant quantity of money, approximately $25,000 worth to start a scholarship fund for students. This is no small task for a new graduate and my family, but my wife and I both are strongly committed to the future of Allegheny College and the students who attend. There is no other organization that has had such a profound effect on my life and aside from seeing my own children attend this school, their is little else that would make me as proud as creating a sustaining scholarship fund.
So why do you need to know this? Because I need some advice on how to do this. How can I do this most effectively? Has anyone else done something of this scale and have advice on how to start out? I'm all ears (or eyes as the case may be).
Hagerstown Federals Don’t Advance but are Winners
The Hagerstown Federals proved that they were winners tonight. They proved that they went to play the game of baseball and the went to win the game fairly and not just play for the tie breaker. While I don't like the way the tie was decided, I know that it takes a winner to play a game as it was meant to be, regardless of the technicalities surrounding the advancement to the semi-final round of play.
This post is to you Federals, we are so proud of your accomplishments and you have brought the people of the area together as we rallied around your accomplishments. We can't wait to have you back home so we can celebrate your amazing run at the Little League World Series.
Allegheny CS Majors Strike On April Fools Day
The Allegheny College CS Majors struck without mercy on April fools day this year, filling the CS department with balloons. Of course the CS professors had no idea what to do with the invaders but the following was overheard:
Dr. Kaphammer: My unit test did not predict this outcome!
Dr. Roos: Where in my database did I have this result stored?
Dr. Cupper: This doesn't look like Javar to me!
