And this song is dedicated to the Mary Washington College kids of the mid-1990’s —

— Depeche Mode’s “Stripped,”  to take the sting out of the news of Seacobeck’s impending loss.  Hell, whenever the Seaco-posse got together for one of those parties in New Hall (it was a regular occurrence), we played Depeche Mode like it was going out of style.

Actually … maybe it was going out of style.  I’m pretty sure that Mode’s popularity was never quite what it was when I was an undergraduate.

Oh, well.  Enjoy the song, get to sleep (we’re old now), and dream of bug juice and Rose Room cheeseburgers.
