Big thanks to for letting me be part of your Brass Rat (MIT class ring) formal!

I hope y'all were expecting exactly this kind of nerd silliness when you schedule an MIT event on May 4th.

Students digging for a few records they’d like to hear in class this week. I don’t have enough turntables for all of them, but at least they get a feel for what it’s like to put a needle on vinyl.
