Seeing this 2x on NT today was 3 more times than I wanted.
 
“He who is only an athlete is too crude, too vulgar, too much a savage. He who is a scholar only is too soft, too effeminate. The ideal citizen is the scholar-athlete, the man of thought and the man of action.”
— Plato

Chinese-American Maya Lin was an architect major at Yale University.

While a student she submitted her design in the competition to design the Vietnam Veteran Memorial and won the competition, even beating her own professor who entered the competition.

The design was considered controversial because of its minimalistic design at the time. Today, it is considered to be one of the most influential design in modern architect history.

Funny thing is, her professor gave her a "B" for her grade for this.
