==A curious 1904 incident==
The New York Times reported on December 17, 1904, that a member of the junior class was dismissed for hanging the commandant of cadets in effigy. "Thereupon the junior class passed resolutions that if the dismissed member were not reinstated unconditionally the class as a whole would resign. The class refused to rescind its action, and signed another paper resigning from the Institute, but the Faculty dismissed for insubordination every student whose name remained on the paper." I haven't been able to find out what happened subsequently. [[User:Dpbsmith|Dpbsmith]] 18:21, 29 April 2007 (EDT)
