1988 at COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY

May 15, 1988 New York Times Magazine

 

National Scandal! Vanimal and Cheryl get caught out skipping class sipping wine coolers on the steps!


Bill Graham was a guest lecturer for one of my music classes. His son was in my class.
Life changing day for me.

I am a bozo. I forgot the five finger hand lecture points on the final exam.


One professor down-graded a paper I turned in with this comment:

 

"Your typewriter needs a cleaning or an overhaul -- the skips and run-togethers are distracting for the reader."

These were the days before personal computers, don't forget. 
I typed all my papers on an ancient Remington manual typewriter I had bought at an estate sale in Atlanta for $3 bucks.

Hell, I can't read her handwriting either... oh well.
