    Absolutely no clue how anyone can read Tom's I'm Leaving post and rationally conclude the HE is running away from anything.

    HE has simply decided that he will no longer volunteer his time and efforts to an administration and management HE no longer believes is deserving or worthy of it. HE is hardly alone in that belief.

    He clearly and concisely listed multiple behaviors, attitudes and tactics of the institute's administration and management that lead HIM, as HE stated bluntly in HIS post, to feel "embarrassed and ashamed" of the very institution HE graduated from.

    Obviously, He reached the determination that HE and HIS name was engaged (all be it on an UNPAID VOLUNTARY BASIS) with an endeavor without merit. Once someone determines that, one withdraws. PERIOD!!! THE END!!!

    Any expectation level by anyone who somehow, someway believes that HE should continue volunteering HIS time and efforts to this organization and terms HIS not doing so "running away" would ALL find their rationality, lucidity and ability to read and comprehend questioned by ME.

    LEAVE THE MAN ALONE!!! HE HAS DONE MORE THAN ENOUGH AND DID IT FOR EIGHT YEARS!!! Besides, HE now has far better things to do with HIS discretionary time. Namely, a family that now includes a toddler.
    I agree with tony/troy and Ralph. Tom has more than earned it. Tom, thanks for WaP and werpi hockey. We will be RPI Proud again.

      Also on a non-hockey topic... Congratulations to RPI's Grant O'Connor for winning the NCAA Div. III track and field 5,000 meter outdoor NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP a couple of weeks ago. An amazing individual achievement. His winning time of 14:26 is a few seconds better than my son's personal best who runs the same event at the Div. I level. Fantastic!!

        So apparently the RPI Alumni Email for Life website has been shutdown. I get an error message saying invalid certificate. Now, I don't know much about this, but my IT friend says it's not very hard to renew, but RPI has to do it. A little notice would have been nice.

          I was wondering why I wasn't getting any more of those...

            Must've not have liked what I emailed to Ralph.

                What happens to mail that people send to that address? I used that address for a lot of things, but I don't really know what.


                Edit: I tried emailing to that address, and it still forwards mail.

                  The mail still works, but the secure certificate for the site expired. It's something that RPI has to take care on their end, as it involves payment of their vendor. I can't imagine that that is the administrtion's way of saving money. Hell, Ray Tomlinson, who INVENTED email, is a member of the RPI Hall of Fame, so even though Ray is no longer with us, it shouldn't be that hard.
