120 years ago, Washington State University was called the Washington Agricultural College and School Of Science. Personally, I prefer the former name. It's almost as fantastic as the names of some of the students who attended the school circa 1901-1902!
Problematic yearbook name... not so fantastic.
But before we get to the fantastic student names, I have one question to ask...
Why did the children of the 1990s never get referred to as the Naughty-Ones? It's so delightfully absurd. We totally should've claimed it.
Oh well.
Meanwhile, Grace Lula Coburn? Not a bad name at all. But it just isn't nearly as fantastic as these ones...
Solon Shedd
Walter Dibble Plough
Eleazor Darrow
Roscoe E. Swank
Charlotte Malotte
Cleo B. Corner
Fred Ford Flanders
Beattie Cordiner
Leah Bean
Elsworth Thorp
Ethel Espy
Guy Sargent
Sofus B. Nelson
Adam Duncan Dunn
Weltha Webster
Lucyle Hogaboam
Milton P. McCroskey
And my choices for the top 3 most fantastic names...
Charles Centennial Carlisle
J. Sweetheart McDonald
and (read it aloud...)
John Storrs Cotton
Brilliant.
Well, congratulations kids of the early 20th century.
Not that you're reading this... since I assume, if you are still alive, it's only because you're this guy...
