A college diploma is considered one of the building blocks for a successful future. If the diploma itself is made out of building blocks, well, congratulations on majoring in meta.

SEATTLE, May 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ After a shortened four-game run in 2020, the Huskies are ready to reveal what they are capable of with a full 12-game season and a brand-new AstroTurf® home field. The University of Washington chose to install the most popular turf system developed by the leaders in high-performance synthetic sports surfaces, helping to kick off what is expected to be an incredible season for the veteran-heavy team.
The AstroTurf® 3D3 RootZone system is recognized as the top choice for player safety, stability, and durability. It takes the standard infilled turf system to a whole new level by adding a specially engineered RootZone layer. Multi-ply primary backing boosts dimensional strength, and a polyurethane secondary backing system offers world-class support for athletes.

Tim Meamber showed up at Husky Stadium last week to watch University of Washington spring football practice, something that used to involve him, the last time 37 years ago.
Meamber, 58, was a first-team All-Pac-10 selection at inside linebacker, a Husky co- captain, an integral part of an 11-1 team that beat Oklahoma and Brian Bosworth in the Orange Bowl, and later an NFL player with the Minnesota Vikings.
In the past 14 months, he s probably accomplished a lot more meaningful stuff than all of that.
