There's a bronze bust of Dr. Spengler on the Columbia campus in the 2016 film.
I saw that! It was the kind of prop I would definitely have tried to keep around if I were a Columbia science department. (I really minded Yale not being able to keep the memorial statue of Marcus Brody after the filming of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in 2007.) I just wasn't sure what it said about Egon's work in this timeline. I didn't hear him mentioned in the dialogue, at least not in the theatrical cut.
I appreciate that all the cameos could be canonical for the 1984 film. How else would that cab driver know so much about apparition classes?

Fair enough!
I'm so glad you liked my story.
I really did.
