We thought this idea over last year at Purdue for about 15 minutes. We were going to just do the departmental faculty, though. Include vital statistics such as oft repeated phrases, doctoral thesis title, areas of research interest, primary funding sources, newsgroups to which they often posted, "Rookie Of The Year" honors, etc. For professors who were rarely around, we'd issue one or two cards, so that having the prof's card would be as rare an event as seeing him in real life. Also figured it would be a good way to get into a *whole* mess of trouble, too. ;-) What's this got to do with the ACM...? Darn good question. Let's move this discussion somewhere else. m@ +-mbraun@urbana.mcd.mot.com-+-"Trade 'ya six Rices for a Comer."- - - - - - - + | Matt Braun -- Motorola, | "No way!" | | Urbana, IL Design Centre | "How about if I throw in a Spaf?" | +---Cupertino, CA Chapter---+-"Yeah, allright." - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -+
