Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Oregon academics

IMHO, it's an embarrassment what their academic institution is, and what's happened to them as far as their state funding has gone. In my mind it's a wonderful athletic facility but they've watched it at the expense of the university go really down.

    I apologize for what I have said, I have a great respect for the University of Oregon both as an institution and an athletic program

    I realize it's a whoosh, but what's funny is that there is a bigger gap in undergrad admissions stats, especially sat scores, between Whitman and UW than there is between UW and oregon. No doubt we're higher, but not by as much as people think.

    It's so fucking stupid.

    How the hell can Budda Baker be considering Oregon? Hasn't he compared the academic rankings of the two schools? Sark better get on that next time he visits. Tosh should get Michael Kneip to give Budda a call to tell him about how he turned down the ivy league for UW. I bet no stupid duck could do that.

    How are we 8 poasts into a thread on this and not one of you has corrected the OP's spelling? If we're going to discuss our superior academis, at least spell the word right. Academis are important.

    I forgot what Doog said that. Although Stephen Schilling and David DeCastro come to mind. Even E.J. Savannahah(your eyes are as good as mine) was a good LB.

    The Bellevue busts, save for Savannahaha, commit to UW. The rest of their stars leave. Things are great between Butch and Steve. Just ask Kim.

    Who cares? None of my children or grandchildren would ever go to UO to get a higher education and those of my Oregon relatives who actually attend college and can't get into Oregon State deserve to waste their time in Eugene.

    This better-than-thou academic crap is so boring for any real Dawgfan.

    The truth is, we have more in common with Oregon academically than we do the top schools in the conference. I threw in Whitman just to make the point of how silly it is because we're not even the most elite school in our state.

    Also, Oregon has always been harder to get into than Oregon State. You, like every other engineer I know, think that if you're not making $45,000 a year working for Boeing, you're not living. I moved out of those neighborhoods when I was in my early 30s. :)

    As it pertains to GPA, I believe the #s are even closer, but I don't pay attention to those because they're subjective. SAT scores is where the men are separated from the boys.

    And, yes, it is all about undergraduate selectivity. The rest is detail.


    SAT SCORE COMPARISON
    Reading Math Writing

    You realize that everyone gets made fun of here, but you lose your shit if anyone makes fun of one specific group of people.

    God it's embarrassing how much you love oregon. Just go ahead and do it. Come out of the closet.

    If you're going to make fun of Oregon, do it with an ounce of intelligence instead of the typical humorless Doog crap that got old a decade ago.

    Agreed. Doogs make fun of Oregon by talking tradition, academics, etc.

    We make fun of Oregon by talking Kip Kinkel, Todd Doxey, Eugene being meth infested.

    That's how REAL Husky fans troll Oregon.

    In Passion's defense, that pic was definitely meth infested. If he'd have left out the academis smack, it would have fit right in.

    It was accurate when I was looking at colleges back in the days before college football was invented.
