I went to a party school, SDSU, and proud of it. But to claim Oregon is about football and parties is inaccurate. Nike, readers digest, Columbia Sportswear, Intel, Palm, Gucci, MySpace-All invented by or the Ceo went to Oregon.
Look I hate how Bama wins all the time, but there would be no Wikipedia without the University of Alabama. Also the CEO of Lockheed/Martin.
Football and sports excite the Alumni and promote donations, which lead to academic and research achievements. My fraternity brothers who donate the most, the 5, 6 and 7 digit donors only do so because they like attending vip athletic events. To lack a D-1 athletic program with some achievements is to lack the money to achieve. Don’t hate the way it is, capitalize on it.
