SMU opened in 1915-my grandfather was in the first class.

SMU was founded in 1911, didn't open until 1915. I've been curious which one the school will celebrate. Although wasn't the 75th anniversary celebrated in 1986?

Personnel are being hired to publicize the school's 100th anniversary leading up to 2011. If you go to the school's home page and search under Employment, you'll see the various positions that are being hired.

2011...5 years away. Sure would be nice to have high-powered athletic programs in place by then...maybe a new AD will help.

I hope they do something really neat. It will be the perfect time to get my son excited about going to his parents alma mater. I think Secules will do a great job getting us ready.

No. Sometimes think it would be a whole lot cooler if I did. But, what are you gonna do?

Is that right? I had no idea! How very cool, Stallion. I knew your mother was a prof.
