Did you know that Jeffrey Dahmer was once an army medic..?
mindcage- i was there from 95-98 fer my graduate degree.

i can't answer your footy-ball question as i'm a girl and really, the only college sports i follow is maybe basketball and aside from that, all the philly teams.
but really not even that closely.

also, while at OU, if not in the bowels of Kantner Hall, I could be found at the Union (music bar and grill), Haffa's Records or that one weirdly good comic book store.
When did you graduate OU? Another Bobcat!

How the hell are they in 1st place for the football conference? They won a total of 6 games the entire time I was in college.

You came in right after I left in 95 :) I wasn't a big sports fan either. I just lived with a football player for two years and had a handful of friends that did play on the sports teams. Living in Boyd Hall my first two years helped with that.

The Union was a great club. I spent plenty of time there and the Dugout for music. I played in a band called Bob's Brain while in school. Got to play for Halloween in 93 and Springfest in 94. Good times! Haffa's was the best…much better than Schoolkids Records (Although I did score some nice bootleg CDs there)

I went back probably 5 years ago for an alumni weekend. Lots has changed! I'm hoping to make it out there this spring.

Everyone I know who went to MIT finds a way to get it into every conversation.

"Wow, tater tots, not as good as the ones at MIT though…"

"I guess these door knobs don't have to be as secure as those we had at MIT".

It is amazing to see in action.

Don't forget Harvard. They never miss an opportunity to play the Harvard card.
That's kind of how I am about High Point.

Weird, the two people I know who went to Harvard (both law school) never seem to tout it. Maybe it is an undergrad thing. I would not have known either went there except others have mentioned it.

they're exceptions to the rule.
They only people I have known who went to Harvard never mentioned it either, others did, and whenever it came up they actually shied away from it.
I must not run in the same circles as you guys. I can only think of two Harvard grads I've met, and none from MIT.

Iowa State seems to be a biggie when it comes to the statistics world.
i only say this because i just went through two months of firm interviews, and pretty much all of the harvard law grad interviewers made a point of mentioning the name of their law school at some point during the conversation, definitely not so much with other schools

i think it's just that harvard has so much "layperson" cred that they're kind of conditioned into mentioning the name in all sorts of situations … big difference between, say, university of pennsylvania, which many people may confuse with penn state, or even NYU … i guess the same thing works with MIT, but the friend i have from there is a pretty humble guy, definitely embarrassed when it comes up
In my office I can't spit without hitting a Harvard grad (believe me - I've tried). I have never found that they wear it on their sleeve.

I think it's funny that a guy with the username "HoyaSaxa03" is griping about people noting where they went to school.
