Ken Flaxman '64

from Encompassed – Bronx Science Stories · host Encompassed – Bronx Science Stories

“It was a crazy time in the early ’60’s. I have a vivid recollection of getting yelled at for not standing straight during the pledge of allegiance, and I vowed never to go to assembly in the morning again, which I could avoid by going to Math Lab. That was really the focus of my life for a few years: not getting drafted, staying in engineering, finding a job that was related to the national defense effort, and stopping working when the draft lottery was over.”
