George P. Burdell [SEP] Introduction
George P. Burdell is a fictitious student officially enrolled at Georgia Tech in 1927 as a practical joke. Since then, he has supposedly received all undergraduate degrees offered by Georgia Tech, served in the military, gotten married, and served on "Mad" magazine's Board of Directors, among other accomplishments. Burdell at one point led the online poll for "Time"s 2001 Person of the Year award. He has evolved into an important and notorious campus tradition; all Georgia Tech students learn about him at orientation.
