The Story of Albus
Once upon a time, Ma’ayan went on a secret mission to the Oberlin Alumni Association and while there, tweeted a photograph of a cuddleable relative of Albus that inhabits the alumni office.
The internet loved it, and someone totally excellent told Ma’ayan that a plushie squirrel could be purchased downtown at the Carlyle Shop.
After Ma’ayan obtained her squirrel, she conducted a round of name nominations and later, a democratic voting process, on her Facebook page.
Albus on the day of his naming. Celebration ensued!
Though Albus made his way into the online world in late November, his breakout role was in early January, when he learned about email, blogs, and Facebook. If you’re applying to Oberlin, you may find that Albus loves to check in if you will be joining him on campus. You can also follow Albus’ adventures here on his blog or on his Facebook page.
