is also a small liberal arts college of about 1,500 students (it was around 1,000 when I attended) and we didn't have football from 1950 to 2013. We're a Div. III school now and I do enjoy watching the games online.

My friend at Union actually practiced law for about ten years before he became tired with the corporate world and went back for his PhD at the Univ. of Texas. When he was a student he had long blonde hair and a lot of people thought he resembled Tom Petty. I believe that he would prefer to have my hair now since I still have a good hairline and there are only a few stray gray strands in my brown hair.
