In all seriousness though-- I just checked this to see if it was still alive after so many years. I'm amazed it lasted as long as it did (well after the social death of LJ). This was a huge resource while at Purchase for so many I can't imagine, and a great repository for 30pg essays on dolphin shape-shifting. Matt, thank you for keeping this going for so long, and being a great moderator throughout the years. You did a great service to the Purchase community. This board was a surprisingly big part of keeping the campus (and occasionally, alumni) connected. Sam

Damn you for making me sign in to LiveJournal.

It's nice to remember how this community mattered for a time, so thank you Sam.
