I forgot to add the info on testudo

According to tipster R. Wood Miles: "There is a legend that when a virgin graduates from the University of Maryland, Testudo leaves his pedestal and flies around the quad. There is another legend that he has never flown."

Unless you are in top 1%, take a careful look at your IS options. You don't always get what you WANT in life.

He wants the SEC Football, being farther from home, etc.


I almost get that. The South Carolina campus is distinctive, whereas Maryland could be anywhere. On the other hand, if you like football, the Big 10 is great.
