It should be expected since Mizzou is always battling it out with Harvard and Cal Berkley as the leader in Fortune 500 CEOs.

And I'd never guess that Washington U in STL blows that number away by almost 5x. Where in the hell are they getting their money from?? Chicago Alum??

It pays to be one of the best medical research university in the nation.

Oh ok. For some reason I thought St. Louis U was the better school. I went up there on a school trip to check out their geography dept(Yes I was in the Geography Club), very nice. They asked me about transferring but their damn tuition was too high(back in 2002). SLU's endowment is 852 mil. These schools in this state have some good endowments considering our state's population. The STL schools are really raking it in and none of their enrollments hit 15,000+.

Thank you. Hell they are doing something down at UF if they can invent the first "sports" drink in the world. And the most popular one. I can still picture that commercial with them in the lab.lol. Can only imagine the other research going on at UF.

4b of it has nothing to do with your institution but that your state sits on oil and gas reserves.

We were tied with Florida a few years ago but they've moved up since then. We just got a 1 BILLION dollar research grant from the US Department of Health, so I think we'll be making a pretty big jump in the next rankings.

Yep your right, you got me I haven't graduated from college yet, of course thats because I went and joined the real military. So while you were sitting their watching some fake arse wanna be military cadets grab their nutsack and hoping that your shitty football team scores so you can kiss the fat arse girl beside you all because for some dumbass reason "its a tradition".


Irrelevant to the point. Chances are EXTREMELY high that since I pinned Captain during OIF 1 that I (and several others on this board) have more military and deployment experience than you do.

But you are right while you was being educated I was watching 2 of my friends get blown up by a fricking IED and then laying there wondering if I was going to lose my leg which just had part of the humvee floor pan blown through it.


Again, irrelevant.

But you are correct you spotted a non grad you ever so observant arse, but unlike you who probably had your mommy and daddy pay your way through school, I earned my scholarship fighting to protect your right to attack me, of course you only do this from the safety of your home, all because "us non grads are so easy to spot".


The fact that you took offense to being outed as a non-graduate illustrates that you completely missed the point.

One of the hallmarks of a "t-shirt t-sip" is an air of superiority in areas in which they themselves have no basis to make a claim.

You need to remember that military service isn't solely reserved for people who agree with you.

Unfortunately for you, I go to a university that shits all over UF and aTm, both of which are average universities. Deal with it.
