IV - I don't have a problem when someone says it to me - I do have a problem when an alumnus says it on national tv. It's not the image we should be projecting. |

Why not? UMASS was, and still is, a party school. What is wrong with that? It doesn't take away from the academics. If anything, it helps show that the school has a social atmosphere.
I've never understood the argument against the zoo mass name. _________________ Stop waiting for UMass to do something big and help UMass do something big. - Shades |

Actually, that's exactly what it does, IMO. |

My experience has been that when someone wants to denigrate the University, he/she will say Zoo Mass and then snicker. It is always a direct attack on the academic integrity of UMASS. When someone says this to me, I take it as a direct insult. It really hurts that one of the most visible alumnus says this on national tv. I just can't believe he said that.  |

Yeah I heard it and I was bummed out. In the grand scheme of life it isn't that big of deal but I was definetly dissapointed. I was actually looking forward to it and was wondering if he was going to say Umass vs University of Massachusetts, but I just never saw this coming. Poor form.
Go Umass! |

Attack you? I just said that I thought you were taking it a bit too personally. If you think that is an attack, you probably won't last long on this board!
Agree to disagree on the ZooMass thing, I'm clearly in the minority on this board (but apparently not on FB and twitter). _________________ Stop waiting for UMass to do something big and help UMass do something big. - Shades |
