Especially the idiots claiming it isn't top 10 worthy when it has top ranked programs in stem and humanities above most ivies and privates like duke.

It's really a hard-core school, only college is 100% from top 10% of class, not even MIT.
Yes, more than 40% Asian, yes, no fun.

Anthony Hopkins. Heck of an actor. DeAndre Hopkins - very good wide receiver. Hopkins Airport - Rock on, Cleveland! Hopkins, MN - nice suburb of Minneapolis.

That's all I've got.

Love this random musing. Too much my school beats up your school here.

Let me add mine:

Papa Johns. Better ingredients, better pizzas, allegedly. Jimmy Johns - their humorous in-store signs are as good as their sandwiches. Johns Island, the rural charm in Charleston SC.
