<p>What a great year for W&M.</p>

<p>Mike Tomlin wins the Super Bowl. Two alums , Bill Gates and Christina Romer, are in the Obama cabinet. Jon Stewart is named the most trusted person in the news media (hilariously awesome). W&M crushes UVirginia in football. Soccer team has the player of the year in CAA. One girl is named a Rhodes Scholar and another is named Miss Virginia. Finally, Scrubs got renewed for another season.</p>

<p>" Oh Lord, its hard to be humble, when you're perfect in every way....". new Alma Mater to be sung at every formal occasion. Can it get any better ??</p>

<p>and W&M football returned to the playoffs! making the trek down on saturday morning.</p>

<p>new construction happening on campus, including the completion of the new business school!</p>

<p>Men’s and Women’s cross country took home CAA championships.</p>

5

<p>Women’s rugby undefeated and won state!</p>

6

<p>W&M beats Wake Forest in basketball and advances to next stage in the football playoffs. In the same day. </p>

<p>W&M sports are absolutely amazing!</p>

7

<p>oh my… what a superb day for Tribe sports. Worth the round trip to the burg, despite puttering along at 20 mph on I95 between Richmond and Fredericksburg on the way back to nova.</p>

<p>Women’s bball also went 2-0 this weekend. And men’s XC got 3 all americans (i think).</p>

<p>Football traveling to Southern Illinois next Saturday, and men’s bball has a huge home game with VCU. Support the Tribe!</p>

<p>Went to the Wake game. Wake fans were patronizingly polite until midway in the second half. So impressed with Coach Shaver and how well prepared the team was. Especially down the stretch. William & Mary should start a movement to join the ACC since we keep beating their teams.</p>

9

<p>It just keeps getting better!! Big comeback win vs VCU in hoops and a dominating game against S Ill. W&M rules!!!</p>

10

<p>what a day.</p>

<p>The “last channel” button on my remote got a huge workout.</p>

11

<p>Couldn’t have said it better ourselves. And don’t forget, W&M was named top public school in the country for study abroad participation!</p>

<p>Thanks, Soccerguy. With exams, she didn’t mention it.</p>

14

<p>Ahhhhhhhh lost by 1 point to Villanova in the Semifinals… ahhhhhhhhh =(</p>

15

<p>that was a crushing loss… my toes were not happy campers being outside for 4 hours. One play here or one play there and the outcome is different. =(</p>

16

<p>But for a happy point, the last fiscal year was the best fundraising year for the College ever.</p>

17

<p>good story about Michael “Pinball” Clemons… he was on the last W&M football team to beat UVA prior to this year.</p>

<p>I’m excited here in central New York because quarterback Mike Paulus is leaving UNC for W&M next year. The Paulus family is a well-known athletic dynasty in our area, so maybe more people will know what I’m talking about when they ask where my kid goes to school and I say “William and Mary.” More than once I’ve started to answer and had someone about fall down with amazement, saying “Williams!!! What a fantastic school!” Which it is, but -as those of us on this thread know - so is W&M. :)</p>

<p>Darren Sharper made the Pro Bowl and, I think, set the record for most yardage in interception returns for a season.</p>

20

<p>The Indians - I mean Tribe - just beat Maryland. That is the second ACC team they have beaten this season.</p>
