Just know that if anyone mentions anything about BC's Engineering Department, RVs, Magic Cards, D'Angelos in Randolph, or other schools in the ACC wanting BC OUT of the ACC, these are inside jokes that refer to me. But at least no one tells me to eat a dick full of AIDS the way they do OJ.

innocentbystander {l Wrote}:Yes, "innocentretardo" was the result of the legendary discussion concerning BC is it a university or not?!
I guess I might have listened to the wrong people.
I had an boss at a job that I worked for about 4 years who was a BC graduate (the job I worked 3rd shift, warehouseman, full time, while in school.) This boss and I would chat from time to time about BC and he kept harping on the fact (over and over) that Boston College was not a University. He said he was so very proud to be a BC graduate, that he got the best liberal arts education that money could buy from the best Roman Catholic college in Boston. What he was not interested in was some technical/engineering degree that they grant at "Universities" (his words.) Now, in my family (salt of the Earth, blue collar family), I was the first person to actually graduate from University (Northeastern.) So I didn't have a whole lot of "wisdom" when it came to terms regarding Boston's schools of higher learning. I just took what my ex-boss said at face value and figured he knew what he was saying. What I am gathering from you all is that he did not know what he was saying.
Okay fine. I got it then. I get it now. My boss was a BC graduate but he was also a fool.
I find it kind of sad that he wasn't able to send his two children to BC. He said he couldn't afford it. Bridgewater State was all he could afford for his two kids. (So he got to go to BC, but his kids didn't.)
Anyway, I graduate Northeastern. First boss I ever had for the first temp job I had out of Northeastern was also a BC grad (and a BC season's ticket holder.) He would tease me at lunch the way bosses tend to needle and tease their subordinates. Little did I know what that this teasing was a one-way-street. One day, he started in on me as a "rich kid" because I was able to work "temp" jobs. Apparently, this BC grad was too stupid to know that doing help-desk temping was all I could do without any real technical experience. And with the 1990 recession still lingering, it was temping or nothing. BUt I decided to tease him back, bad move. I said to my boss "...no I wish I was a rich kid. If I was rich I would have gone with you to BC instead of Northeastern." He stopped laughing and he glared at me. 2 hours later I get a call from the temp agency telling me that my contract had been terminated effective that day. No, it wasn't worth it.

Notice the trend of BC grads being the bosses of Northeastern grads.
