[NU Sports] Post season awards

[neonrye at aol.com]

I couldn't get into Eisner's section.  He became very well known in 1972 as George McGovern's chief economic guru during the ill-fated campaign vs. Nixon.  Needless to say, he never got to serve in the White House.

In the late 80s, it all depended on who your prof was. I made the mistake of taking B01 with Eisner. His exams were multiple choice, but most questions were of the form, "Which of the following is false?" followed by four complex sentences that only differed by one or two words each. An Econ major friend who was taking it with a different prof (I forget who) and I traded exams once after we got them back and we both did significantly worse on the Eisner exam.
