Why Do I Have To Keep Feeling Embarrassed?

Syracuse University does a lot of things well. At the very least that was the case when I went there between 2001 and 2005. Of course, that was a time before social media and Twitter. Hell, there wasn't even Facebook until my senior year, and even then it was campus e-mails only and you could only friend people at your school. Maxwell was highly regarded. Newhouse was highly regarded. Both still are. Syracuse Athletics was highly regarded, with Jake Crouthamel the chain smoking, Patton-like leader. While programs' success go up and down, overall SU is still a highly regarded institution of higher learning and athletics.
