5. I have heard stories about Brett that...
made me blush. He wasn't a nice guy on campus to the people who had to teach him.

As for having pride in my alma mater, I'm too indie (and too busy) to give a damn about all the social goings-on on campus. I've never even been to a football game there. :shrug: Never paid a penny to the alumni group. Never done much but go to class and leave campus as soon as I could.

But I am sure that your theory is correct in many cases. It gives other alums a "warm glow" to hear their college mentioned. Not me, but I'm sure that it has that effect on die-hard fans of college football teams and alumni.
