Interesting question on the character of the school. I went to high school with 1500 or so other morons and I don't know if the experience would have been different at 15 (of course it would depending on which particular 15 morons), 150 (I would be hanging out with those same 15 so I probably wouldn't notice too much), or 15,000 other than a 15,000-student high school is unheard of.  Stanford has 20,000 people are so on campus, so I don't know that reconfiguring graduate and undergraduate populations would be that noticeable. The experience is about being on campus not in front of Zoom.

Also, I thought of you BC when reading this elsewhere. None of the recent travails are new. Through the looking glass 130 years. At least the chances of being stabbed at a game are pretty low now. It's an article written by GT's play by play guy with guest appearances from Teddy Roosevelt, Cal, Stanford and Walter Camp, Robert Neyland, and Grover Cleveland. The post-bac discussion of today was the woodshop discussion of yester-year. Tech hero Leonard Wood [the namesake of Ft. Leonard Wood in Missouri] portalled on out of there and beat a depleted Tech squad the next year. One thing I hope repeats is the newspaper headline of "The Techs Won. But the People of Athens Are Greatly Dissatisfied."

A tale as old as college football.
