As a matter of fact, I received a phone call Tuesday evening from a Freshman co-ed working in the SMU boiler room, "dialing for dollars". She talked about the new dorms and dinning facilities, but had no idea what Joe Perkins Nat. was; thinking that the outdoor Barr pool, with its bubble, was our school's permanent natatorium. And, was unaware of the ground breaking for the new natatorium across Central Exp.

As they say at BYU.....I don't care how you bring'em.......but, bring them young.......and dumb.

PERUNA NEUTERED

Guess I'll pass that along to my daughter who is visiting BYU as we speak

My last name begins with the letter (B). I told my solicitor that I had already donated this year anonymously. Her response was that it didn't show in the records ! :shock: I told her that she should check her list again under the names that begin with the letter (A). 8)

Twice I've had them call during an SMU basketball or football game. I asked why aren't you at the game. Don't you know you should never call an alum during an SMU football (basketball game). Call me when we aren't on TV.
