SMU is not Bob Jones University

[LostinVA]

Just saying.

1. OMG, did somebody suggest it is???

It's more like Notre Dame--nominally associated with a religious denomination, but about as secular a school as you'll find.

[LostinVA]

6. Oh, heavily implied: "RW BMW crowd" is all over the threads

And, apparently it being Laura Bush's alma mater and the future home of teh W Library makes it a Freeper school.

HA! I just told Haruka it's like Villanova or Notre Dame.

9. Dallas is my hometown, so I'm pretty up on SMU....

...almost went there on scholarship, btw. And the suggestion that it's a religious school (in anything but name only) is just hilarious.

Edited to send a big :hi: to Haruka!

[LostinVA]

13. I just said, 'I didn't know Shakespeare was from Dallas"

And she said,"I knew that."

[Shakespeare]

14. LOL!

Haruka knows all!

That's okay... the cat likes ME, better -- and it's HER cat.

19. Yes, both points are true. See Kitty Kelley's book. It explains it in detail, and

there are endnotes as well! A few of her college classmates corroborated the assertion.
