AKL and The War on Terror

There are days in history where you remember exactly where you were. On September 11th 2001 many of us watched the non-stop news coverage in the chapter room on the big screen. Every time a replay was shown of the plane hitting the south tower, Otis Day would say "Jesus !". Needless to say Jesus got mad shout-outs throughout the entire day. One would think the Eagles or Phillies were blowing a big lead.

Then later we were blessed with the prescence and commentary of the great philosopher Trae. He entered the room most late in the afternoon and declared to all "This is so surreal". He was disappointed when his gravitas found no traction.

In early 2003 the war in Iraq loomed during the Spring semester. One man celebrated during the build-up and opening operations by blasting Outkast's "Bombs Over Baghdad" out of his room. That man, is simply the tactful guru known as The Goat.
