One of my favorite memories of Boardman House had to be the snack bar that was located in the basement.

A few of us would begin our day there with coffee and a doughnut or two. Three of my friends and I would often sit together in a booth and begin to harmonize with a barbershop tune or two. This was usually done when there weren't too many people around. However, our harmonies weren't always appreciated by the music teachers with studios on the first floor. In their always-polite manner they would come down and remind us to leave the harmony to the pianists or violinists.

It has been sometime since I have been to Ithaca, but I always make the tour of the "old downtown campus" and remember.

I congratulate you on the modern campus of today and the strong tradition that carries on in all fields.
