“Failed to Appear in Class”
Even a world-famous architect can’t make it to every class. Shown in the photograph is a picture of Frank Lloyd Wright’s progress report, with a note from the professor that he had “failed to appear in class.” Dated from the 1880s.
Frank Lloyd Wright was admitted to UW (Madison) as a special student in 1886. He joined Phi Delta Theta fraternity, took classes part-time for two semesters, and worked with noted professor of civil engineering and architect, Allan D. Conover.
 In 1887, Wright left UW (Madison) without taking a degree (although he was granted an honorary Doctorate of Fine Arts from the University in 1955).

*The UW-Madison Archives does not endorse the practice of “failing to appear in class.” Even in the middle of winter. When it is cold. Bitter, bitter cold. Unless you are sick, in which case you should most certainly not appear in class.

My least favorite people (at this second) are people who feel Obama “let them down” or “didn’t deliver on his promise.” Guys, “HOPE” was a one syllable slogan, a logo even, to get a corporate backed, big D Democrat elected in a cash contest. People like you are THE SAME THING as the “undecided”…

Hey Guys!

I would love to have some followers. I only have one, and the sad thing is that it is my Mom. 

Thanks!

Coworker to me: "You're like the Forrest Gump of our office."
Me: "What?"
Coworker: "You just are at all of these major events without meaning to be."
Me: "Oh. I thought you meant something else."
