What college/university do you hate the most???

[SmileyBoy]

It could be a rival of your current/alma mater college or university, or one you've just always hated throughout your life.

As for me, I'd have to say the University of North Dakota, otherwise known as "Underwear Tech" or "The Upstate Normal School". The only university in the country where one of their official team colours is pink. YES, PINK!!! (They never wear pink on their uniforms, tho. But it is an official colour) My university (North Dakota State) had a huge rivalry with them in every sport, but after we (NDSU) moved to Division I two years ago, they decided they didn't want to play us in any sport anymore, thus ending the rivalry. They whined about how they wouldn't be on a level playing field (the babies). Even though other NDSU fans say that we should just forget about them, I won't be able to forget UND for a long time. They have a long history of being antagonistic towards NDSU, including trying to block our establishment of graduate programs, and more recently, trying to block our move to Division I. UND is still in Division II, by the way.

Sorry I rambled on like that, who's YOUR most hated???

[petepillow]

1. Devout Ohioan- HATES MICHIGAN

[x-g.o.p.er]

12. "That school up North"

Can kiss my Buckeye ass!!!

[Gemini Cat]

36. Michigan!

North until you smell it and west until you step in it. or something like that.

Wow. I really should not drink this much.

[realisticphish]

24. Wolverines

:hippie: The Incorrigible Democrat

[BuddhaGirl]

50. Well, at least Michigan is going to the Rose Bowl!!

:evilgrin:

GO MICHIGAN BLUE!!!!

[petepillow]

51. yes and you should send a thank-you note to wisconsin.

but yes, dammit, yes you are.

[wickerwoman]

2. Syracuse.

I was in the drum line in college. Drunk gorilla Syracuse fans threw oranges at us.

Assholes.

[tedoll78]

3. I live in austin..

and I hate U.T. The whole "hook 'em horns" thing drives me nuts. When there's a home game, I feel like I'm in a town full of cow-humpin'-obsessed hillbillies.

Of course, when there's a game outta town, good!

/doesn't like university sports..

[LDS Jock]

60. I don't like UT either

Its just shoved down your throat here. The ugly colors, the hook 'em horns sign, that stupid "I've Been Working On The Railroad" song. Just hate everything about them.

[CO Liberal]

4. Tie - Bob Jones U. & Liberty U.

I'd like to see them both close their doors forever, and Bob Jones and Jerry Falwell locked away in prison cells with big cellmates named Bubba.

[medeak]

5. ah...you beat me to it..ditto n/t

[SmileyBoy]

7. You think Liberty and Bob Jones is bad?? Take a looky at this:

8. then there's BYU n/t

[BREMPRO]

21. Hey lets be fair to these fine institutions...

its really "hard work" to teach folks to be ignorant and judgmental.

[petronius]

6. Stanford...

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA !!

Go Bears!

[RevCheesehead]

9. "Go to Hell, Carolina, Go to Hell!"

Duke grad here. We're indoctrinated. On game days, even the campus busses are programmed to read "Go to Hell, Carolina!"

[ncrainbowgrrl]

13. The University of New Jersey at Durham (AKA Duke)

Great football game today, don't ya think?! :evilgrin:

[kittycat1164]

18. Gotta be Duke.....

cause I bleed Wildcat BLUE.

[short bus president]

59. You KNOW a team is great

when they inspire such intense feelings in out-of-conference rivals. But don't sweat it. UK's just a "D" and an "E" short of being a perfectly cromulent school. :P

[surfermaw]

62. Go Carolina, mother of four Tarheels

Go Carolina...

[LostInAnomie]

10. University of Evansville

I went to University of Southern Indiana which is across town from UE. UE is mostly a school for rich, pretentious assholes. I have never met a person that went there that did not have a condescending attitude towards any other school south of Indianapolis.

A few years ago USI tried to get an engineering program and UE along with a couple other schools fought to keep it from happening. They were afraid that if a public school would get an engineering program they wouldn't be able to charge 20K+ for someone to come to UE.

I also hate their arrogant sports program. They have about 2000 students and they still try to have D1 program. Even though they are raped by almost every other team in their division they still refuse to drop down to D2 because it is beneath them.

[fugue]

11. Gee, it's my alma mater that I hate . . .

Cornell thinks trauma is a necessary part of the learning process. It's built into their courses. A friend and I are trying to convince his wife (all three of us are alumni) that she should not talk up the school to their daughters.

Of course, the girls would be double-legacies, just like their mom. It's a different experience for us first-generationers.

On edit: Oh, gee, I forgot Patrick Henry! An evil institution abusing the name of a great patriot!

[WindRavenX]

14. Notre Dame

SCREW YOU!!
And BU.
Yah for the BC Eagles!

[greatauntoftriplets]

20. Notre Dame here as well.

I am a Northwestern grad and they always resented us for being a Big 10 team.

We resented them for being better at football.

[IronLionZion]

15. I hate Michigan AND Ohio State!

take that fool! :P

[SmileyBoy]

17. Well, I do too, so THERE!!!

:P

[meisje]

16. Muck Fichigan - Go Bucks!

[petepillow]

22. Nice.

But I'll bet W would only like the bucks because he got Ohio. Let's see how he likes em after the recount. ;)

[DS1]

19. Mine

Duh!

[barackmyworld]

23. yale sucks

at least their football team does! Harvard wins for the 4th year in a row, 35-3!

[sir_captain]

28. woo hoo!

[HEyHEY]

25. U of Toronto U of Calgary

[Biased Liberal Media]

26. Cal Poly San Luis Obispo

It's all about the GAUCHOS baby!

[jdots]

31. U.S.C. always a licence frame and "W" sticker

Pepperdine because the c.i.a. recruiters probably have an office there

[SmileyBoy]

33. We lost to Cal-Poly 13-10 this year...

We coulda won that game too. We practiced our asses off all week for that game.

GREAT WEST FOOTBALL CONFERENCE RULES!!!!

[medeak]

38. is that a conservative school?

am visiting with son next month and told it was...well not Berkley.

[petronius]

39. I teach at Poly...and it is definitely not Berkeley!

The student body probably leans conservative, but not monolithically so - I would guess it is not too far from an even split (the faculty outside of engineering and business is largely liberal). A progressive student of any flavor would be able to find a like-minded group of peers on campus, but should expect to see a fair amount of opposing viewpoints. Our latest upheaval was a design class that produced a display on campus linking gay marriage to a slippery-slope toward bestiality - most of the reaction was negative, but a disappointingly large number of people thought it was "just an attempt to foster discussion." Academically, it can be a very good school - smaller classes, more professor interaction, etc. Still, if you want diversity, a range of cultural opportunities, and a minimum of ranchland odors, then this may not be the ideal place...:)

[Left Is Write]

27. I don't actually hate any school, but I am SICK

and TIRED of hearing about the BSU Broncos over and over and over and over and over....

It's like an obsession around these parts!

(That's Boise State U, by the way, not Bullshit U. Although......)

[angee_is_mad]

29. Carolina

and it is almost a crime to say that out loud in NC.

[Ann Arbor Dem]

30. There are two....first, Hillsdale College.

Followed closely by Ohio State. They won the game today but we are going to the Rose Bowl and they aren't. :bounce:

[arwalden]

32. TIE: University of Georgia / Florida State

[lizzieforkerry]

34. John Brown University in Arkansas.

My best friend went there and I lost her forever to their fundie curriculum.

[Spock_is_Skeptical]

35. Bob Jones University I suppose

[Dzimbowicz]

49. No doubt about this one

BJU is a disgrace to us all and a bigot factory!

[Ms_Mary]

55. A girl I graduated with went there briefly

She wanted to go to a Christian school and once she got there realized she was under total lockdown. No pants allowed, only skirts or dresses of acceptable length. They sensored the mail. They would cut out pictures that were "too revealing," like lotion ads, etc. I don't believe they are an accredited school either.

[Endangered Specie]

67. Nope, and they choose not to be accredited...

at least thats what they say.

[lefty_WOHM]

37. Better dead than Crimson

I went to MIT. We hate Hahvuhd. Why? Because they're full of themselves & think they're the only school worth a damn in Cambridge, MA. We call them "that little liberal arts school up the river"

I also hate all Florida schools. FSU, U of FL, U of Miami, etc.

[barackmyworld]

53. You're just jealous because

we know how to write

[lefty_WOHM]

56. I'll have you know

that my job is writing now. SOME engineers DO know how to write!

At least we don't have Bush as an alum! heh heh

[barackmyworld]

75. oh come on

I think it's pretty obvious that he barely went to BUSINESS SCHOOL

[sir_captain]

64. Inferiority complex much?

Ironically, a lot of Harvard students don't like Harvard very much, but that's a whole different issue

[juslikagrzly]

40. OU - University of Oklahoma

uo, gooners, land thieves, sewerners, dirt burglars, etc.

[judaspriestess]

41. LOL, my sweetie hates OU too, he is an

OKLAHOMA STATE die hard!

[YellowRubberDuckie]

79. GOD, I hate them!

OU SUCKS...and they just luck into their wins. They have no talent. The can just run out a clock. This year they beat Oklahoma STate by 3 points, and everyone freaked out. If that clock hadn't run out, they would have had their ass handed to them. GOD I HATE THEM.
Duckie

[StrongbadTehAwesome]

42. Rice

F*!$#&@ jerks rejected me! I got into an even better, higher-ranked school, but said school is also ridiculously expensive. Rice was almost as good, and helps its students out a LOT more with financial aid.

Also, Bob Jones U, "Liberty" U, all the Concordia colleges, and anywhere else that indoctrinates instead of teaches and has a student rulebook from the 1850's. At Concordia schools, they kick you out if you get pregnant and you're not married!

[ND_Democrat]

43. Jesus, let it go man!

I was gonna say my most hated school was the University of MN, but after hearing your rant my hatred for the bison takes the cake now.

One of our school colors is pink because our state flower is the prarie rose, which is also pink.

As far as us whining about you moving to D1, and us not wanting to play you anymore, I do believe the Sioux kicked the Bison's ass around the football field for the last couple of seasons (Football is the Bison's best sport by the way).

"UND is still in D II, by the way"
Are you suggesting that because NDSU is DI, they are better than UND?

Some real classy people down there at Farm U.

[FM Arouet666]

44. Bob Jones, Liberty U and BYU. n/t

[Brumbi23]

45. All the Ivy League schools, academies, etc.

Can we get a president who just went to an average state school? Why does it have to always be Yale or a military academy? Heck even Kerry went to Yale. We need to put someone up from an "average Joe" school. Most Americans would connect with that better. The people with the 1500 + SAT's are failing us.

[fleabert]

46. Texas A&M n/t

[CRK7376]

47. From this Demon Deacon

the team I hate the most is UNC! I'm a huge ABC fan, anybody but Carolina!

[huskerlaw]

48. University of Colorado-Boulder

Sore losers, football team that's always being investigated by the NCAA, ignorant fans who will start fights with opposing team fans when they're sitting in said team's student section. Oh, and let's not forget the unfortunate "let's throw broken glass at the cheerleaders" incident.

Go Huskers! :toast:

[vikegirl]

68. Agree....

I went to Iowa State....go Big Red this Friday and bring the Clones the Big 12 North!

Edited: On second read, I was probably too harsh on CU. But I still hate 'em. :evilgrin:

[GRLMGC]

52. UC Berkeley

Because they rejected my ass. And they did it in a mean way, too. At least UCLA wrote a bullshit rejection letter that was nice. Fucking Berkeley. They can have their strong College Republican movement. I'm not bitter, hehe.

[Padraig18]

54. Michigan.

:evilgrin:

[WMliberal]

57. yooveeay,

fuck the wahoos.

[Medium Baby Jesus]

58. Hey! You must be thinking about VA Tech

All you need is a pick-up truck and a calculator to get in.

[Va Lefty]

63. Yeah, they don't call it "Hokie High" for nothing

[WMliberal]

65. nope. that shit school in charlottesville.

not the even shittier one in blacksburg. yeah, that's pretty much all you need to get into tech.
if you're sans calculator, there's always george mason, vcu, and odu.

[Medium Baby Jesus]

70. William and Mary stinks to high heaven

Haha. You spilled the beans on another thread.

[WMliberal]

72. and in my name

actually, what closer to the truth is joking how ugly the girls are. holy moly do you need beer goggles for the overwhelming majority. I'm so glad I date a Tri-Delt.

[CanuckAmok]

61. That damned matchbook art college.

How many turtles do I have to draw before I'm in, I ask you?!

[Endangered Specie]

66. Duke, Carolina and Georgia Tech...

in that order...


Go Pack!

[Swamp Rat]

69. The university that has the most racists - LSU

Louisiana State University

Bush spoke for the graduation ceremony earlier this year... lots of winks, nods, and ""you know what I mean." There are dem "furriners" dat do all dat science stuff, and dem football players dey call LSU "livestock." :grr:

The irony is, the University of New Orleans (UNO) is the most integrated school in the South.... well, New Orleans is not REALLY in the South; we're more of a Caribbean/Latin city-state.

Fuck LSU! and their "good ol' boy" network. :mad:

[PittPoliSci]

71. eh.

Probably just fundie unaccredited schools.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

74. Oregon State, but not for sports reasons

Now I love the town of Corvallis, but I hated teaching at that school: an insane budgeting system that required department chairs to negotiate their departmental budgets every quarter and wouldn't fund a beginning class in any language unless there were 28 students signed up. Faculty had no phones in their offices, just an extension of one of the department's two phones, so that only two faculty members in each department could be on the phone at a time.

Faculty couldn't use school office equipment to make copies for students unless they were copying their syllabus or their final exam. For all other handouts, you had to take a master to Kinko's and make the students buy copies.

There were way too many Reagan-worshipping ROTC students, and the Greek system was so strong that it sapped the strength out of all other extra-curricular activites. Imagine a 16,000-student school with one choir of about 40 students and a theater program that had to go off campus to cast its plays.

Large classes were the norm, and the students were so accustomed to being anonymous that they were surprised when I knew their names. Perhaps because of this, cheating was out of control.

I hated to leave Corvallis, a lovely, liberal town located in sight of both the Coast Range and the Cascades, but there are reasons that the school had trouble hanging on to faculty.

[LeftPeopleFinishFirst]

76. BYU

It's like the complete opposite of my perfect college!
