Gilman Mug
An all-male college preparatory school of about one thousand students in northern Baltimore City. History Gilman was founded as the Country School for Boys in 1897 in the Homewood House on the campus of Johns Hopkins University. In 1910, the school moved to its current 68-acre campus on Roland Avenue in Baltimore City, into a building (now called Carey Hall) designed by one of Baltimore's most notable architects of the day, David Hamilton Thomas, Jr., and its name became "The Gilman Country School for Boys," to honor Daniel Coit Gilman, president of Johns Hopkins, who played an instrumental role in the early years of the school. In 1951, the "Country" was dropped, and the school became "The Gilman School for Boys," the name by which it is known today. Academics Gilman is often noted for its strength in academics, usually being held in higher esteem than its rival schools, like Boys' Latin, McDonough, and St. Paul's. The course offerings in the Upper School each semester number more than 100 and cover a wide variety of subjects and disciplines. The core curriculum is rigorous and surveys a wide variety of material. There are also opportunities to take classes at the neighboring girls' schools, and to study independently. Gilman's academic program provides its students with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in higher education and the world beyond. Indeed, Gilman graduates go on to attend some of the finest colleges and universities in the country. Athletics Gilman stresses the importance of athletics to building the whole person. The school's interscholastic teams have excelled, winning championships in football, basketball, lacrosse, and tennis just in the last few years. Other strong programs include soccer, wrestling, and golf. Gilman teams also sometimes have athletes named to be All-Americans in their sports, a testimony to the strength of the Athletic program and the talent of its participants. Mission Gilman seeks to educate its students in mind, body, and spirit. This is accomplished through intensive academic work, participation in athletics, and character development. The school's ultimate goal is to turn boys into young men of character and integrity, men who will become vital members of the communities in which they take part and give back all they can to those communities. Motto In tuo lumine lumen. In your light, (there is) light. Mascot Greyhound Colors Blue and Grey Alumni Notable Gilman graduates include: Walter Lord '35, author of A Night to Remember, an account of the Titanic Frank Deford '57, Sports Illustrated and freelance sports writer Robert Ehrlich '75, Governor of Maryland

very cool kanye for me gave it to my crush and now were dating so yea
I bought a Prone mug and i love it its so good imma prone to the bathroom now brb
This mug gives my life purpose. It's what I've always said. Patience is a virtue and hard work never betrays. Ever since I was born I've been struck with one misfortune after another, but today it all paid off. I got my own mug, and I use it anywhere and whenever I can! Both of my legs are shattered because to my wife threw me in the middle of traffic and my windpipe is messed up due to me screaming all the way from the crash site to the hospital thanks to the unbearable pain I was feeling. Although even with all that's happened this is still the best day of my life. I suppose the only problem I have is that whenever I happen to look at my cup I get a little too happy. That causes problems because my life support can't handle my exhilaration, haha! I'm just kidding; that was just a little lighthearted joke of mine. I actually cannot afford life support because I spent all of my life savings on this fine piece of pottery. Not to worry though! I can get through the pain with my will and drugs - I mean medication. P.S. There are definitely no ghosts in the mugs. Just wanted to point that out in case someone was worried about that.
I bought two mugs as gifts for coworkers and they were very pleased. The print was clear and concise. Hopefully they last a long time.
Ordered a gift for a friend I hope he likes it :)
Mug was well-packed when received. Shipping was timely. The mug was as advertised. Very nice.

This is a great gift to give after our Urban Dictionary inclusion

My Name is Walter Hardwell White, My Mug was sent to 308 Negra Aroyal Lane, AQ, New Mexico and arrived on-time and I am very satisfied. My "Glock Dookie" mug is great for my lab work, and my friend Pinkman loves it!
I love this cup! My now ex-husband loves his opioids more than life itself. He would constantly pass out dead to the world the only thing I would here was his death moans. I had to call an aid car for him so many time that I can't remember plus 2 or 3 times the doctors told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have died. Her abandoned me after I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer because I was of no use to him any longer. I have no clue now who must be the one that's obligated to save his life any longer. All I know is I'm free from him now. The only thing I'm waiting for is that he finally overdoses himself & he's dead. I am buying a cup to send to him for our divorce anniversary gift so he can keep it in memory of how he treated me.
I loved it! Excellent quality!
I received the mug as a gift from a friend with whom I exchange "Weekaversary" eMails. I love the concept but am wondering why "aniversary" is spelled with only one "n?"
Wish it had the example text as well, but I loved it anyway
It’s great to be able to create your own mug.
My name is is Geet and literally this is literally a gem of a souvenir to have with me XD.
I love to put my lips on this in the morning
