06年,我们在判决书上夺冠
07年,我们在四月里夺冠
08年,我们在大雨中夺冠
09年,我们在电视机前夺冠
近一年的等待,总算是画上了一个可喜但并不完美的句号。回首联赛四连冠之路,每一年都有一个独一无二跌宕起伏的故事。那明年呢?
傲骨虚心真力量,热肠冷眼大慈悲
校办杂志The University of Chicago Magazine在2004年8月的一篇题为"Myth Information"的文章中对这个不解之谜曾经有过这样的描述:
Another landmark that fascinates the student body is Virginio Ferrari’s sculpture Dialogo outside Pick Hall. Locals say that every May 1—International Workers’ Day—the four-piece bronze sculpture casts a shadow that unmistakably resembles the Soviet hammer and sickle. Alas, this past May 1 was overcast, so the tale couldn’t be confirmed firsthand. But some administrators, such as Rockefeller’s assistant to the dean for external affairs Lorraine Brochu, swear to the story’s truth. The mystery is whether the shadow was intentional and whether the date is significant. Ferrari, the University’s artist-in-residence when Pick was built in 1971, made no Communist references in his work. He described his intentions in the June/71 Magazine: “What I want to call to mind in this sculpture is the four corners of the world. ... They rise up slowly and become soft and delicate; two of the forms almost touch in the center in a caressing manner. The third, almost a circle, hovers over the two, to suggest protection and security for the life of tomorrow. The fourth form represents a big wave, symbolic of the water that surrounds and unites all of the continents.” The Soviet shadow, it seems, is merely a coincidence.
