In 29 days, I'll be back on campus at my alma-mater at an extra special homecoming as Lebanon Valley College continues celebrating its 150th birthday. In honor of that countdown, here's memory #29: A Phipps and the computer lab.
I am of a certain age, it's true. I am of the age that maybe only got email at the tail end of my campus life (heck ... we only got cable and phones in our individual rooms during the early part of my school stay). I am also of the age that had to go to the campus computer lab to get things done for class like papers and for personal reasons like printing off the murder mysteries I was writing.
Lucky for me, the guy who ran the computer lab ("ran" may have only been in my mind and his) was already a friend and already one of us ("us" meaning "of the theatre").
A Phipps will be referenced again in this series as it draws to a close ... but for tonight, he belongs right here with his note to me from March of 1994, where he's gently mocking the "computer illiterate" amongst us in that era (and I'm guessing that he might have meant "me").
