Damn it feels good to be a Michigan Wolverine because...

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Michigan

<ul>
<li>you are a member of a school that has numerous top 5 ranked departments</li>
<li>you are a member of the number one research university in America (along with Berkeley)</li>
<li>it is one of the best combinations of academics and social life in a college campus</li>
<li>you are soon to join the largest living alumni network in the country</li>
</ul>

<p>This is just a random thread. Here are just some reasons I chose UM. Just curious to see what you feel good about being a wolverine.</p>

2

<p>you're a wolverine! Duh.</p>

3

<p>I finally have a football team to root for that isn't a complete embarrassment to my school.</p>

4

<p>well, let's hope not diezel. Keep in mind that the Michigan football team can be an embarrassment to the school even if we go 7-5. So the same rules don't really apply as they did in High School.</p>

<ul>
<li>you have a flag on the moon!</li>
</ul>

<p>(- you are a member of the number one research university in America (along with Berkeley) huh?)</p>

6

<p>Sorry I meant number one public research university, UM is number nine overall. This according to the 2005 report of TheCenter.</p>

7

<p>Believe me, anything's better than a team that perenially goes 2-9, wears purple, and has the nickname Canalmen. Which, by the way, is easily shortened to Analmen, which is probably more indicative of the way they play. Those pansies.</p>

<p>How do wolverines attack?lol</p>

<p>B-School, big-time college atmosphere and sports, liberal arts empahsis, hopefully good job opportunities, all the choices, people of all sorts, study abroad opportunities.... oh, I love to say that I am a "Wolverine"! ;) Wolverine sounds much better than my second and third choices... Tigers and Commodores.</p>

<p>You turned down Princeton for UMich? Wow, I love Michigan, but Princeton?!</p>

<p>"you have a flag on the moon!"</p>

12

<p>Perhaps he means the Auburn Tigers....</p>

13

<p>Agreed. They're a lot of Tigers in our world.</p>

14

<p>Perhaps that was a bit presumptuous of me...</p>

15

<p>I didn't even think of Princeton or Auburn. I was referring to my state's University, the Missouri Tigers. They have a good honors college, decent B-School and the cost, with scholarhips, was way, way cheaper. I assume there is only one Commodores! ;)</p>

16

<p>Yeah Commodores!!! She's a brick...........house. lol. jk.</p>

17

<p>Samwise, although a flag of the University of Michigan was not left behind, a charter of a new University of Michigan alumni association was reportedly left behind. As such, Michigan is the only university with an Alumni Chapter on the moon! LOL</p>

18

<p>samwise, that information greatly disappoints me, but it is nice to know, as Alexandre and The Daily point out, that Michigan has an alumni chapter on the moon instead!</p>

19

<p>Who cares about the moon Sonar?! As long as Michigan rules on Earth, who cares what happens on the lunar surface|! hehe</p>

<p>... you'll never make the NCAA Basketball tournament</p>
