This weekend, the MIT Drama Shop, a student group, presents “”https://events.mit.edu/scripts/event_ext.pl?event=14659757&location=https://dramashop.mit.edu/calendar&groupid=91,2375,1340&type=php">The Roger’s Plan." It’s at the Kresge little theater, in the back of 48 Mass Ave. Tickets are $5 and it’s open to the public,

William Barton Rogers founded MIT on the tenets of learning useful knowledge and applying that knowledge in the classroom. In the last 150 years, this institution has been filled with brilliant minds tackling problems Rogers would have had a hard time imagining: weapons development, political protests, the rise of women in science, environmental activism. Walking through the halls of MIT we are surrounded by the names and legacies of the greatest minds of the last century, and are constantly facing the challenge of living up to the exceptional examples that came before us, creating new approaches to complex social problems, and managing to lift our heads up from the backbreaking, time-consuming work of science to see the possibilities and consequences that lie ahead.
