Okay, so I know it was kind of rude, but I just couldn't help it.

First of all, I'm just repeating what I hear and have seen
myself. I personally don't give half of a rat's ass which school is more
of a "party school" than another. In fact, the more of a party school,
the less I respect it and the people that go to it.

This is something you're PROUD of??

Wonderful atmosphere: fear, probably mixed with disgust. I'D sure
love to try and get an education there.

Cool. Get 'em started early, I always say. Life's really just one
huge race to alchoholism, isn't it??

Real winners, obviously. Then again, we ARE talking about Idaho...

I won't even go into my incredible admiration of the Greek system
in college... do these frat boys, perchance, make up the majority of the
weekend drunkerds that the student body is afraid of?

Now I'm dissappointed... I mean, why stop for exams?? Didn't you
go to that school to PARTY?!?

Well, heck, you should have said that in the first place! I mean,
if it's the RADIO STATION MOTTO, how can it be wrong?? Unless of course
it's really "Diversity Rains", but somebody misspelled it...

Oh, I believe you alright!
Thanks for setting me straight about all that, Jim... I really
had no idea what I was talking about, but now I know the truth... I'll
never look at UI the same way again. You have won my respect.
You do know I go to UCSD, right?
