Frank Soler: Speaking Frankly
...was a day to remember. It was Maem Appreciation Day, where the Gentlemen lauded Maem for her dedication and service to keeping the Hall clean and tidy. It was also a day when the Gentlemen gathered together in the historic Oak Room of South Dining Hall for dinner, where in addition to enjoying an "institutional" dinner, they heard from the Hall Bard, Daniel Wrapp, and the Guest of Honor, Frank Soler '14.
Soler imparted words of wisdom and later was inducted into the newly created "Order of Gentlemen" for "in action faithful and honor clear to Hall and King." A plaque commemorating this high honor will be placed in the Hall's main lobby. Congratulations Frank!
Still, I would be remiss if I didn't recount the Hall Bard's limerick that was delivered at the start of the evening. The Bard said...
There once was a man named Jameis.
When we played him, the refs did betray us.
Now crab legs are all gone,
And we must move on,
Til we see him again in the playoffs!
Well said, Bard, well said indeed...
Happy Founder's Week, and may the Founder smile on you always!
