This is a wonderful time to be a geotechnical engineer. (to a rap beat)

Its T-day today,
so, yo! raise a hand,

And give some Re-spect

to Terzaghi the man.
He's the top of the pile,

and Deserving all glory,
So make him look good,
by telling his story.
'cause Today is THE DAY

so in class while you toil,

Go honor the man,
the King of All Soil. Yo.
Karl von Terzaghi (October 2, 1883 to October 25, 1963)
