It was so cool and so completely insane that no one erased it for months. This is true.
Anyway, Kyle came back and he said, you guys, listen to this ... They’ve got blackboards running down the hall! Because these kids are so smart they just need to, you know, drop everything and solve problems!
It was then we knew for sure we could never have gotten in.
But like I said, we later made a movie here. Which did not go unnoticed on campus. In fact I’d like to read you some actual lines, some selected passages, from the review of Good Will Hunting in the MIT school paper.
Oh, and if you haven’t seen it, Will was me, and Sean was played by the late Robin Williams, a manI miss a hell of a lot.
So I’m quoting here: “Good Will Hunting is very entertaining; but then again, any movie partially set at MIT has to be.”
There’s more. “In the end...,” the reviewer writes,
“the actual character development flies out the window. Will and Sean talk, bond, solve each other’s problems, and then cry and hug each other.After said crying and hugging, the movie ends... Such feel-good pretentiousness is definitely notmy mug of eggnog.”
Well, this kind of hurts my feelings.
But don’t worry: I now know better than to cry at MIT.
But look, I’m happy to be here anyway. I might still be a knee-jerk teenager in key respects, but Iknow an amazing school when I see it. We’re lucky to have MIT in Boston. And we’re lucky it drawsthe people it does, people like you, from around the world.
