General Rosette, 1824
A long forgotten painting has been unearthed from the endless archives of ETB, and the results are startling. The newest member of the admissions staff, currently known as "Rosie," may be older than most would even imagine. Here the dog is shown in an English uniform, handsomely decorated, with the prim properness that was expected for any military officer of that time. The name "General Rosette" was engraved at the bottom of the gold picture frame, causing many of the ETB staff to wonder if there is more here than meets the eye. Why is Rosie portrayed here with a masculine name? How did she acquire such a position, or further, what sort of positions has she filled in life? Perhaps more importantly, why was our beloved Rosie hired by WCC to fill the office of Admissions when there are perhaps other, better roles she could have filled? Have no fear, for ETB along with IIT have your back, and are in the immediate process of digging deeper into the matter.
Less is know about this painting, but it is thought that it was completed sometime later in the general's military career. The strange detail about this portrait are the hands. No one seems to know why the dog was painted with human paws, and stranger still, no one seems to want to talk about it. The president of IIT has been notified, and he has taken it on as a personal case to figure out this mysterious detail.
