I miss going to these games. I wish it was at Madison Square Garden this year, I'd so be there.

UNC also lost which makes me really happy since I'm a Duke fan. I never even heard of some of these schools untill a few days ago.

I was amused by the fact that in the lower corner of the TV screen where they show the score, it said:

BRAD
PITT

Hmmmm - Elphaba - we will see. A girl can always dream.

If UCLA plays better defense, they can beat Gonzaga.

I may just have to bet you a bottle of Nature's Miracle on the game!

I am -- honest to God -- a Bradley graduate. A school that no one ever (otherwise) knows.

Bradley already rules the speech team nationals, do they really need to ruin that reputation with big wins in NCAA basketball?

Due to a lack of KU in the Sweet Sixteen, I must pledge my alliegence to Wichita State.

Even if they did spawn Dennis Rader.

Glad my school is getting some national recognition, I liked it there. The city (peoria), not so much though.

In addition to Liotte and me, Bradley turned out:

Jerry Hadley, world-class tenor, infamous for being chosen by Leonard Bernstein to be on the all-opera recording of WSS (and badly reviewed in the Met's GREAT GATSBY.)

Also: this year's make-up Oscar for NARNIA.

When I was there, the school had lots of young radicals on the faculty, and the student body was very liberal and feisty, despite the Peoria locale, with 1/3 from Chicago. Now, it's very conservative.

Recently, famous Peorian Betty Friedan died, and a majority of Bradley students polled had never heard of her.

(double post)

I say "very conservative," in contrast to the old student body. Who overtook the student union in a race protest.

Liotte, wouldn't happen today, no?

"Very conservative"??? That's funny to think of Bradley now, definitely does not apply. As if any of you could believe that I went to a "very conservative" school anyway!

Yeah? My friend on the faculty said Bush was overwhelming choice for president among students polled (published), and that those who aren't Republican are generally politics-indifferent at best. I thought not knowing who Friedan is speaks volumes. But perhaps we should take our discussion outside, Liotte...
