[NU Sports] Pride of Illinois?

[johnadeg at comcast.net]

I agree with Roy.  As far as I am concerned I graduated from the School of Arts & Sciences not from what ever name that has been hung on it now.  I give whatever I can to the Wildcat Fund and that is it.  I used to give to the Richard Leopold chair until I figured out that they must get the guest speaker list from the DNC.
