The Ted Williams Nissen Bread Bowl. I am loving it. How about the Big Yaz Bread Bowl. No problem with another bowl game. More football the better in my opinion. Even it is between 2 mediocre/losing teams in front of a scarce audience ?

As long as it's not blacked out in Mass. I'm all for it. The Harry Agganis Bowl. Former Red Sox player who played QB for BU when they were playing at a decent level.

How stupid ideas like this somehow come to fruition sometimes amazes me. You would have to pay me some serious money to attend a game of this nature, in the northeast, in Winter. In the meantime, a host of good ideas remain in the hopper. I'm confident the deserving local charities/hospitals that benefit from these bowls hope that your opinion is in the minority. This game is a charity fundraiser? For whom?

A buck for every Fenway Frank served will be donated to a charity to be named later.

Worcester needs a bowl. MAC versus AAC? Let's start small: Wheeler versus Carlin?

Wheeler’s been looking for a rivalry since Beaven downgraded and joined O’Kane and Fenwick in the Academic Building League. Much rather see the old school, throw-out-the-records rivalry between Carlin and Alumni.

Took a total of ONE class there in 4 years but used the computer lab upstairs a lot towards the end because a well kept secret if you were looking for a quiet study spot with internet access. Building certainly has the look of a residence hall.

Beaven was indeed a dorm -- from its origins through the 1960s and even beyond. I don't recall exactly when it was phased out as a dorm; I'm sure someone here can tell us when that happened.
There were classrooms on the first floor and there was a philosophy professor (I forget his name) who was famous for climbing through the window if he was late for class rather than go through the door to get to the classroom.

I had a class in Beaven (Asian History) with Professor Shea (around 1965). He came from Boston to teach the class and one time was very late. As the well -known "15 minute" late excuse time came up, we saw him running up to Beaven from the lower parking lot. Since he could see the front door, most of the class exited via a rear classroom window. He did compliment us on our "creativity." I don't remember any prof ever entering by that window. PS: For the class of 1967, the two frosh dorms were Wheeler and Beaven and the sophs were in Carlin and Alumni.

Top 3 floors were dorm rooms until the late 80s/early 90s with classrooms on the ground floor.
Conversion may have coincided with the Jesuit community moving from Loyola to Ciampi and Loyola becoming a dorm. I think the infirmary was in Loyola since it was built - though I don’t think there are any infirmary beds/rooms left in Loyola as those were converted to dorm rooms as well.

Class of '70, freshmen dorms were Alumni, Wheeler, Beaven with a few guys in a sophomore dorm - Carlin.
Beaven was a dorm (a dump considered worse than Alumni which had its resident Silverfish collection). I had no classes there and think I have been in Beaven less (excuse me, "fewer") times than the fingers on one hand. Most of the residence dorms had classrooms on the first/lower floors. Not sure when Beaven ceased to be a dorm. I believe it had already ceased to be a dorm when my son started in '94.
