<p>Xiggi, you are right about Sanskrit and the conjugate words. Nah, need another language to latch onto… :)</p>
<p>SBMom, my son loved the idea of a core curriculum. We’d need something to attract kids like him too.</p>
<p>how is c-mudge gonna git dem darn snakes in his top-siders??? :rolleyes:</p>
<p>A present for Xiggi:</p>
<p><a href=“http://lordofthepeeps.com/lotp/fotp.html[/url]”>http://lordofthepeeps.com/lotp/fotp.html</a></p>
<p>(Just a little proof that I am going more whacko than c-mudge)</p>
<p>Achat, My son will be there if there’s sanskirt offered. Also Egyptian hieroglyphics and ancient Greek. Surely, we could find enough parents here on CC to teach every course of interest.</p>
<p>Xiggi’s signed on for foreign languages, Voronwe is Visiting Professor for Elvish culture, languages and literature - do you just do Tolkien elves, or do you branch out into to the Sword of Shannara, too?</p>
<p>Okay, okay elephants are allowed, NO HIPPOS - part of the senior oral examinations (did I mention those?) is spelling “hippopotamuses”.</p>
<p>Perhaps the service project can be acting as college counselors for the 50 poorest high schools in the US?</p>
<p>Aha – I see I have been volunteered as Food Service coordinator: I accept! Especially if (given the proposed CA location) I can mandate a community garden of decent size on campus, wherein students would participate in raising the large crop of organically grown produce I will incorporate into our varied and fresh cuisine.</p>
<p>(You think I’m kidding, huh? Think again. 
I’m trying to decide whether to go to culinary school, get a teaching certificate, or open a Bed & Breakfast when I retire from corporate life in a few years. This could be <em>perfect</em>.)</p>
<p>Wow, I’m starting to want to go to this college! I’ll be happy to be the volunteer coordinator for the college counseling project. Or maybe the research librarian. :)</p>
<p>So what are y’all going to call this here college? Confidential College?</p>
<p>We need a LOGO and a MOTTO!!! Any ideas?</p>
<p>And I would be glad to do Elvish culture, etc. because I think no one should do what they do in their real, regular jobs, or what they are really trained for! Then we’ll REALLY break out of the box (professors as well as students!) :)</p>
<p>I wanna be in charge of the division for continuing ed and adults who haven’t made it to college yet lol.</p>
<p>Motto:</p>
<p>“It’s all about fit”. Hmmm… Does it make Confidential College sound like a custom-tailoring shop?</p>
<p>What about a college mascot? And school colors? You cannot overlook these critical issues during the design phase.</p>
<p>We should leave the selection of the mascot to Sluggbugg, no?</p>
<p>For school colors, we have plenty of choices: bluebayou, emeraldkity…</p>
<p>Might you need an Assistant Professor of Bodhran & Quality Control Consultant for the Rathskellar?</p>
<p>fine as long as I am Director of Admissions <g></g></p>
<p>I think our mascot should BE a sluggbugg.</p>
<p>Ok, Reidm can be director of admissions, but I’d like to be an adcom! Any region will do, thank you very much!!</p>
<p>If BassDad gets to be QC Consultant for the Rathskeller, and Mootmom is in charge of food (growing and preparing), then I’m the professor of enology?sp/viticulture and barrelmaking. Can you be on the Board AND be a Prof?</p>
<p>mootmom, may I intern with you?</p>
<p>cangel, it is not hippopotamuses. The correct terminology is 1 hippopotamus, 2-9 hippopotami, 10-19 hippopotamis, 20-29 hippopotamises, 30-39 hippopotamisecas…</p>
<p>reidm, I want to apply. What must I send in with my app? How do you weight the different criteria?</p>
<p>P.S. Definitely keep the elephants!</p>
<p>Oh yeah, I have an INTERN!! Rock on! We are gonna COOK, yemaya13 (you should pardon the expression).</p>
<p>And everyone else gets to eat. Yum. :)</p>
<p>(And drink too, apparently: cangel, shall we plant some wine grapevines on the property?)</p>
