 ::Yeah, I'm tempted to say we just make the page a link to the 'Tute's home page, wiki page, and some "official" history page (probably through Admissions or something). [[User:TrekMuse|TrekMuse]] 17:15, November 13, 2007 (EST)
 :::We made a page for the Rensselaer Union.... why not RPI? What if someone reading this wiki doesn't know that RPI is a school and think RPI is the name of a band? [[User:Malins|Malinski]] 09:34, November 14, 2007 (EST)
+::::"Meh" is all I have to say on the subject.  (Besides, I think that the line "AKA Our Day Jobs" has the fact that it's the school we attend humorously summed up).  [[User:Bickfa|Bickfa]] 15:52, November 14, 2007 (EST)
 Curious, though, what has made it to the AKA list. There was a movement for some time to actually make it Rensselaer University. I think it was in the transition time into Dr. Jackson's tenure. It was eventually abandoned (or so the story goes). Of course, attempting this would involve massive renovations to Sage, West, and Carnegie; approx. 3 new buildings; a massive staffing surge coupled with departmental and infrastructure overhauls; and magically usurping the long-standing perception that the School of H&SS is pretty much just for electives, minors, second majors, EMAC, EArts, STSS, and random graduate students. Oh, and they'd need to build a state-of-the-art performance center ... hey wait a minute, aren't they in the middle of... [[User:TrekMuse|TrekMuse]] 17:15, November 13, 2007 (EST)
