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-ShirtsShirt''': The rarest of them all - you have to become a major or do summer research.====Biology====* Dang, you got nalgenes...Lucky!!!"Williams Biology" Carhartt pants ('02-'03)* "Williams Biology" Nalgenes--green ('04-'05) or blue ('05-'06)* "Sex Cells" fleece ('04-'05)* "Loving Life" fleece ('05-'06) ====Chemistry====* '''"The Night Before/The Morning After"T-Shirt''': Email [mailto:Thomas.E.Smith@williams.edu Professor Smith] - they're $15.* '''Cow-in-an-erlenmeyer-flask/"Williams Chemistry: There is no escape" T-Shirt'''* '''Cow/no escape travel coffee cup''' ===Computer Science===T-Shirts are now available from Lorraine's office for $10 each. Sweet!* '''Keyboard Superhero''' [http://img424.imageshack.us/img424/9581/keyboardsuperherosmall9vs.jpg]* '''Cow Pie''' [http://img489.imageshack.us/img489/9242/cowpiesmall3jj.jpg]* '''Fist''' [http://img457.imageshack.us/img457/4340/fistsmall8az.jpg] (0101 0111 = 0x57 = 87 = ASCII 'W') and then there's this one:* '''Willytown''' [http://img97.imageshack.us/img97/7550/willytown0mu.jpg] which is available from cafepress [http://www.cafepress.com/williams_cs here] ===Geoscience===* '''Knit Caps:''' I have no idea how to get one, but they look like the [[Cross Country Running|XC]] and [[Williams Outing Club|WOC]] ones.==Math=Mathematics===* '''"Williams Mathematics (I'm not digging up all of the symbols!)/|Mathematics|"T-Shirt''': "Williams Mathematics" is composed entirely of math symbols. [[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 Math''' "beverage wrench." Can only be obtained by being a Williams math major and attending the May dinner. ====Physics====
T-shirts can be purchased from [mailto:Barbara.J.Swanson@williams.edu 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''': The current department t-shirt Currently in vogue in [[Thompson Physics Laboratory]] - there's a boxful in the secretary's office.
