write major on diploma?

[nibot]

There is a petition going around to have the College of Engineering print our major on our degrees. Currently they just say "College of Engineering". I wrote to the Engineering Joint Council to say that I liked the diplomas just the way they are. If you care, you can let them know your opinion.

On another note, it turns out that David J. Griffiths has published a second edition of his quantum mechanics textbook! It's not on amazon.com, it's not on his web page, but it's in our student book store, and the colophon says "Copyright 2005". It's blue now.

Actually, in a burst of incredible lameness, only the summer session books are shelved in Ned's and the Evil Corporate stores. I went after a copy of Ashcroft and Mermin (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/asin/0030839939) but had to leave disappointed.
