My sister and two of my children graduated from SU.... I used to be a professor at SU. I know it well.. Excellent University...

Well then I'm obliged to say something nice. They do drink a lot less alcohol than the students at Bucknell.

LOL...Yes.. especially on band weekend... My wife and brother in law went to Bucknell.

I actually have a home on the edge of Bucknell next to the Christy Mathewson Stadium. Know both campuses well...

I migrated south though and have a second home midway between Duke and UNC where I am most of the time... I am not a basketball fan... Just love academia.

“They do drink a lot less alcohol than the students at Bucknell.”

I was 26 years old when I lived in a private house across from the SU Library (they tore my house down to make the parking lot that is there now). Next door to me was a sorority house(where the admissions office is now). They were not allowed to have kegs on class nights so I would have a keg and they would have pitchers....

It was rough.. At the time I was only 26 and teaching full time at another university.
