If I Was A Program I'd Be: A task manager with a slow memory leak.
Favourite Quote: "We believe that by the duration of the one academic year we will be able compare previous attitudes against those now exhibited are in a favorable light." -- Written by an NDSU Mass Communications senior

The Truth Behind The Geek (*creative liberties taken for the benefit of the reading audience)
Bob, who has played the tuba for 9 years, likes to wear large un-cool glasses so that no glasses store employee can ever convince him to give up. Bob was quoted as saying "when my hit points are down to half my background music changes and I get two attacks per round." (We're not sure if he's referring to Diablo II, or Real Life.)
