CNN & Towson U.

[CinaC]

Well, there I was this morning, playing Counter-Strike with CNN on in the background. They start a story about an Iraqi scientist who studied in the US and went to try and build a nuke for Saddam. And then there's a camera shot filmed from Hawkins Hall, panning across Smith Hall at Towson University.

I go to Towson University.

I have a biology class at Smith Hall this summer (first week is over with, three more to go).

They didn't specify Towson by name as a school where this guy had studied, but I thought it was cool to see my university on CNN

Dust 2 bowl (FF on, Dust 2). Don't camp with the bomb, or even if I'm a T, I'll headshot you and plant it.

Evil Geniuses For a Better Tomorrow [EGBT]. For some reason, they made me a clan member (even though I suck at the game).

It is always kind of neat to hear of your school on the news .... if it's in a good sense. I'm a Towson Alumnus, and though I like to see my former school or classmates or co-workers, I can't say I like the possible connection between that scientist, and the University! *lol* I liked it better when I was reading about the school as one of Playboy's top party schools ... that was a few (many) years ago ...

H8, don't worry -- we still talk about that a lot!!!

What was your major?

[H8Criminals]

I was a Communications major and graduated ... wow ... 10 years ago this year. Doesn't seem like it's been that long! Anyway, here I am, in a different form of PR than I had imagined years ago. I love it though ... getting to meet all kinds of interesting people and riding a motorcycle and getting paid for it ...
