ELLA PIPER CLAFFY
Rejecting complacency at Yale’s Neo-Amish society
George Grube ’27 is full of stories. Asking a simple question might yield a response that starts with “back when I was a competitive glassblower” or “during my hitchhiking trip across New Zealand.” As for life goals, George hopes to be a professional Greek Orthodox Monk. Now call me jaded, but I have become less generous with my astonishment since starting at Yale; almost everyone I meet here has crazy stories to tell. So, even though the glass and the trips and the monk stuff all caught my attention, what really shocked me about George is the fact that he doesn’t own a phone.
