I do know Woodrow Wilson though. Was that stellar League of Nations idea a product of that advanced Davidson education?
How many final fours have you got davidson?
We have 1 more than you.

Woodrow Wilson couldnât hit a layup.
OK, I found it. Dean Rusk was secretary of state who worked hard to get us involved in the Vietnam war. I looked it up. Should have asked gramps. Rusk was during his time. Davidson alumni of note come under the heading âDead White menâ.

uncc alumni of note come under non-existent
still waiting to hear your list other than cornbread, who i respect, and the aformentioned mr aiken who i do not and i suspect you all are ashamed of as well.
is the charlotte observor and chapel hill alumni still working together to keep you down? allways loved the old message board for the various conspiriacy theories
is mikeninerhunt still around?
anyway, big brain should be a big battle. we won by 19 2 years ago because you couldnât hit a free throw. glad to see the game is actually on TV
[i]Originally posted by graveline[/i]@Dec 7 2004, 02:21 PM [b] we won by 19 2 years ago because you couldn't hit a free throw. glad to see the game is actually on TV [/b]You won by 19 because our team was awful, FT's were just a symptom of the larger problem.
Before that year we had won, what, 8 in a row?
BTW whatâs the name graveline mean anyway? Is that referencing the line of tomb stones for each year weâve beaten you? Is Davidson big enough for that many?
Gramps said we would have been much better off if Dean Rusk had not pushed us into one of the biggest mistakes of our countryâs history. He said killing people is worse than killing geese.
Speaking of keeping down, where do you hide yours now that goose killing is out of vogue?
Graveline, Iâm so proud that people of note decided to go your little liberal arts college.
Youâve still, however, yet to respond to assertions of Davidsonâs basketball mediocrity, penchant for animal cruelty, and wretched co-eds.
allright, iâll take your charges 1 at a time
1st: iâll wager our 6 year stretch during the late 60âs when lefty was coach against any time in niner history. you did have the cornbread final 4, however we were breifly ranked #1 in the nation
2: aninal crueltyâŚwe had 3 stupid kidsâŚyou telling me no uncc students havent been arrested for dumb ass things? please
- davidson is 1/20th the size of uncc. you have more hot girls. you have more ugly girls. you have more black girls, more white girls, and certainly more dumb girls.
NOW, show me something positive written by an impartial source about your school. give me a us news or barrons ranking. show me that you are still not the red headed step child of the unc system, getting dogged by chapel hill and state at every step.

[/b]How about the fact that we get multi-million dollar grants every year for our new Research Institute?
And, ever heard of the book âHow to Get an Ivy League Education at a State School Priceâ? Well, weâre in it.

I can show you that my UNC Charlotte education taught me how to spell âbrieflyâ correctly (thatâs âiâ before âeâ except after âcâ), âanimalâ correctly, and how to punctuate a contraction correctly. (havenât)
FYI:
U.S.News and World Report ranked UNC Charlotte 10th in academic reputation among 125 regional institutions of higher education in the South.
The University of North Carolina at Charlotte is named one of the Top 100 U.S. Colleges and Universities for Entrepreneurs in the April 2003 issue of Entrepreneur magazine.
According to the AUTM survey of American universities, when comparing universities on equivalent footing - by normalizing the survey results per $10 million of research expenditures - UNC Charlotte ranked:
1st in start-ups formed
2nd in invention disclosures received
2nd in patent applications
3rd in patents issued
5th in licenses executed
20th in licenses and options yielding income
Fortune magazine has ranked Charlotte as having âthe nationâs best pro-business attitude.â
Well put, Run. Iâd heard most of that before but couldnât remember specifics.
I guess we also have a better graduate school than Davidson by default. Heh heh⌠cute little liberal arts schoolâŚ

Smoothie and Run, the same person, all these years I never knew!!!
They were going to have a Girls of Davidson Playboy issue, but they only gave them one month notice. Evidently the Davidson âgirlsâ were unable to get their shave on in that amount of time.

Regional university? Way to compare yourself to academic powerhouses like Georgia southern (the Harvard of Southern Georgia) and UNC Pembroke. I can feel Carolina quaking in its boots.
titin-you hitting the marlins game on the 3rd?

And your trumpeting the fact that your better than the likes of Furman, Wofford, Hobart College (MKâs favorite), and Sewanee - âThe University of the Southâ?
Way to go. Congratulations.
