April 22, 2011 is a very important day. No no, not because it's Earth Day. We're over that.

Instead — trumpets please — today is Eleazar Wheelock's 300th birthday! Happy Birthday Eleazar!

That's right, on this day in 1711, all of our lives were changed forever by the birth of Old Weazy in Windham, Conn.

Hey may not have a super sweet Google graphic today (jump penguin, jump!), but he did found a pretty cool college.
