Alumni long for return of Aristophanes’ frogs
Yale cheers with the words of Aristophanes’ comedy The Frogs.
Another reason to study your Greek, or so Imre Szalai’s ’96 Latin teacher told him. “When I first came to Yale, I was surprised that no one really knew about the cheer,” Szalai told me. “Then, sometime late in my spring semester, I was visiting friends in another suite in Durfee … to my great surprise … I noticed an old plaque in the entryway that mentioned the cheer.”
