Have you seen the Med Center lately? Since the "grand opening" with the new name, etc.?

I think the last time I was back was maybe three years ago. I need to go back and do a serious walk around someday soon.
Ah ... Reiber!! You'll appreciate this then. I was walking up dormie hill one night during what was a really rare thunder and lightning storm. Just classic ... really dramatic. Suddenly, someone in Hedrick starts playing the theme from 2001 (the "Also Sprach Zarathustra"), and then comes a voice over that announced quite loudly ...
REIBER!!
THIS IS GOD SPEAKING!!
I was laughing so hard, I don't even remember what the rest of the divine announcement was.
Of course, I don't know if Hedrick was even built when you were there, but in my day the two dorms had a great rivalry. I don't know why, I just know they did. Maybe something about sharing cafeteria space on the weekends.
Did you know they are now packing kids into those dorm rooms THREE at a time?? There was barely room for two, and now those rooms routinely hold three.
