What should Dean Goldfarb's new nickname be?
Loading ...It’s that time of year again, when a dean resigns, and the next in line needs a nickname. Today, that is Interim SEAS Dean Donald Goldfarb. We tried to come up with some ourselves:
- Old McDonald’s Farb
- The Farber of Seville
- Farby
- Battlefarb Galactica
- Farby’s
- Farbohydrate
- Starvin’ Farbin
- Ziggy Farbdust
- Chicken Farbesan
- Farbie
- GoFa
Suffice it to say, we need a little help. Leave suggestions in the comments and we’ll make a poll next week with the 5 best names, as decided by a complicated scientific procedure that also involves math. If your name wins, you’ll earn glory which will last from when Goldfarb is confirmed until he, in turn, resigns.

Also, Bwog, this is the third dean naming competition: Hinkson -> AHinks, Valentini -> Deantini. So it’s not “the sequel” [title].

@Anonymous Dean CashfarbGold
@Anonymous he has an algorithm named in part after him: BFGS. so his name should be BFG.
@Anonymous if he’s either big or friendly–this is perfect! (dont know the guy…)
@bfg this actually might work — he’s big (at least tall) and friendly (humble, with an old-school East New York accent).
@I smell... Walk-in office hours with snozzcumbers!
