Cosmic Power Suite
Cosmic Power Suite is where I lived in South Dorm during my senior
year at Harvey Mudd College. Suites at Mudd often have names, and
ours had a new twist on an old name. 2 years previous, the suite we
occupied was called Power Suite, because everyone living in the suite
was a dorm officer. The four of us in the suite, that being me, Jim
Frinier, Ocie Mitchell, and Denis Moskowitz, were also all dorm
officers. However, we had more than just that going for us. We also
had a number of religious/ quasi-religious/
not-just-a-religion-but-a-way-of-life associations in the suite,
including UU, ULC, Discordianism, SubGenius, the Illuminati, the
Tristero, Unicycling, The Purple Arrow, Buddhism, Centaur, Jonism, and
various other things to numerous to mention or even remember at this
moment. We figured we were pretty well aligned with whatever is or
isn't Out There, so we wanted to reflect that in our name. Rooms in
South are very small, so we agreed that the Genii's line in
Aladdin of "phenomenal cosmic powers, itty bitty living
space" fit us wonderfully, and thus our name was created.
