Department tchotchke

Whether it's swag, paraphernalia, etc., some academic departments have it and others don't. Here's a list with tips on getting your own:

Astronomy

• "Williams Astronomy" T-Shirt: The rarest of them all - you have to become a major or do summer research.

Biology

• Dang, you got nalgenes...Lucky!!!

Chemistry

• "The Night Before/The Morning After" T-Shirt: Email Professor Smith - they're $15.
• Cow-in-an-erlenmeyer-flask/"Williams Chemistry: There is no escape" T-Shirt
• Cow/no escape travel coffee cup

Geoscience

• Knit Caps: I have no idea how to get one, but they look like the XC and WOC ones.

Mathematics

• "Williams Mathematics (I'm not digging up all of the symbols!)/|Mathematics|" T-Shirt: Alan Cordova got his by correcting tests for a high school math competition in 2002, but there's probably an easier way to get one. Like giving Marissa Barschdorf $10.

• "Williams Mathematics" purple bottle opener: Handed out to math majors at the math major banquet.

Physics

T-shirts can be purchased from Barb Swanson.

• "My Life is Finally Normalized" T-Shirt: Made in 2001; probably not too many left.
• "Williamstown Quality Quantum Mechanics" T-Shirt: Should be a few left.
• "H-bar" T-Shirt: Currently in vogue in Thompson Physics Laboratory - there's a boxful in the secretary's office.
