    This is too funny. Mascots are just nuts someplaces, I remember the Wisconsin Badger getting into it one time with another B10 mascot and a few other scrapes.
    BTW what is a coterminal student?

    The tree is part of Stanford's band. Here is a chronology of some of their greatest hits:

    Bobda, do you guys have a costumed cartoon Wolverine mascot? For some reason I don't remember if you do or not?

    Michigan does not have a mascot. In the 20s, live wolverines were brought into the stadium in a cage on game day but that was stopped due to the fear that a critter might slip out the cage and slash someone's throat with its razor sharp claws

    The AD building has a stuffed wolverine on display. Perhaps in a few years, he'll share space with Lloyd

    I wonder if she distilled her own ethanol in the bio lab? :)

    When I was a student at UT, it was considered a good thing to know a Chem or Biology Grad Student who also worked in the labs because they could get you jugs of nearly pure ethanol to be used in the making of Purple Passion Punch! Does anybody still make that crap? It was perfect for loosening the inhibitions of the ladies! ;) I of course never needed that crutch! :)

    Damn Bobda that Wolverine Avatar is one ugly looking beast, and I don't say that because of the ND/UM rivalry thing...it sort of looks mutant. 8)

    :shock:
    This will only drive the Tree underground. The roots of its mischief will spread everywhere in the Pac10. Do they seriously expect it to turn over a new leaf?

    I thought maybe coterm was something like codependent! :)

    But if they can have 180 credits and still not a have a degree, what the heck kind of program is that? At Texas and Texas A&M if you have 140 hours and no degree they won't let you re-enroll. Gets rid of the professional students and opens spots for kids who want to actually graduate.
