Oh yea, the "diploma" they gave us as we walked across the stage was an Alumni Affairs piece of paper telling us how we could give back.

Yep...hopefully they'll get the date right on yours...mine said June 10th when I graduated on May 19th. [* Edit - Sly *]

You better watch out saying that publicly. The wrong person reads it and you're out of your GA scholarship.

[LUconn]

seriously atrain, as silly as this sounds, I'd edit that. There is a rat that shall remain nameless for the time being who is responsible for The Scorcho's departure, and HMO's hiatus a year or 2 ago. He reads and he reports. It's pathetic.

[Sly Fox]

LUconn speaks the truth.

actually there is probably only one person who would read and do that..

The Dean of communications (yes still the same guy) said my stinking last name wrong. He still does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ATrain]

Thanks for looking out for me.

[Knucklehead]

OOO OOO, What did he say?
I love the brotherhood!

[SuperJon]

Anyone else think it's sad we can't post our true feelings about graduation because we're afraid someone will read it and screw with scholarships and jobs? That's a joke. Unfortunately, it's the truth though.

My grandpa, who is a preacher, said this about it: "After the whole thing was over I thought he was going to tell me he had a used car he could sell me and I wasn't a friend of Liberty if I didn't buy that either."

I found that funny.

[JDUB]

a lot of people in high places read this, and if not on a regular basis they are at least aware of it. I wouldn't post anything that you don't want your boss or someone else important to read

[BJWilliams]

The Dean of communications (yes still the same guy) said my stinking last name wrong. He still does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If youre talking about who I think you are he is the associate dean now.

[SuperJon]

We know they read it, but there's only one group of people that actually take measures to get people to stop posting, and that's the person we're talking about.

Who I'm talking about is still listed as the Dean on LU's web site.

According to the book, HMO, the gym teacher was a separate incident. This one involved a safe & some tickets.

yeah, Falwell actually told that story once on ABC's "This Week" or Meet the Press or something, but the school had the lunch tokens locked in a safe, and Falwell & his buddies stole the tickets out of the safe for most of the year...

I'm free from the watchdog now. Power to the people.

ah...my favorite is the Gym teacher...although it seems as if his brother deserves most of the blame

Some quotes from the book, one of them describing HMO's favorite story:

During Jerry's years at Brookville High School, he may have set a world record for the nunber of practical jokes played by one student. One one occasion, he locked the gym teacher in the storage area and pinned his pants to the bulletin board. Another time Jerry arrived at math class only to discover that his teacher was giving them a test that day. He announced that he wasn't in the mood for a test, locked the teacher in her closet, and dismissed class.

One of his most famous escapades involved a teacher named Mrs. Cox. Mrs. Cox kept a stash of cookies in the drawer of her desk...[Jerry] brought a live rat to class in a burlap bag. Before class, he put the rat in the drawer with the cookies...Mrs. Cox...inched the drawer open. Without warning, the rat spring from the drawer and landed in her lap. A look of horror crossed Mrs. Cox's face as she leapt from the chair, screamed, and fell into a dead faint. (pages 14-15).

[Hold My Own]

I think there was a punch involved...but who knows

[LUconn]

is it a practical joke to physically put your teacher in a closet and locking the door? Pretty sure if the J man grew up in today's world he'd be in juvie.

Oh theres no doubt....but coming from the measures his father would take he did quite well

I missed Chuck Norris and whatever our vice president said, so can someone fill me in on what happened??

Godwin got up at the end of graduation and gave a sales pitch for macel's book, and basically said you are not a friend of LU if you don't buy it
