Kramer Prize

I want this $3,000 Kramer prize so badly it's making me sick to my stomach:


"Dear Students,

The President's Office, Palaeopitus Senior Society, and the Class of 1954 invite you to apply for the Kramer Memorial Prize.
The prize is intended to perpetuate the name and principles of Milton Sims Kramer '54 and is awarded annually to support students or student groups interested in addressing priority campus projects that benefit the Dartmouth community.... the President's Office is looking for students and student groups to submit proposals for innovative projects that promote "Dartmouth fellowship" in one of four areas: sustainability, campus technology, campus health, and interdisciplinary studies......The winner will receive a $3,000 grant to engage in the project during the winter and spring terms of 2011."

And what better way to win the Kramer prize than by using a genius idea by Kramer himself? I plan to win the 3K by proposing a plan to install every door on campus with a reverse peephole. Just imagine: it's wednesday night and you're getting back from amarna meetings, high on life, but before you barge into your room you notice that it's quiet. Too quiet. You check the reverse peephole and see the ominous silhouette of the sun god. The king has returned - to jack you with a sock full of pennies. The reverse peephole has just saved you a severe beating and years of psychological damage. 

And if President Kim  even tries to pay me the prize in US currency i'm walking. I only take Euros, just like gisele.
