About Me:
I am actually 180, not 80. But my present form is the result of the 1967 merger of Case Institute of Technology and Western Reserve University. That's why my name is so damn long! My parents had shared adjacent campuses since the late 19th century, and hooked up for various projects over the years. With mom's science and engineering know-how and dad's talents in arts and letters, I became one of the nation's leading independent research universities, with programs that encompass the arts and sciences, engineering, the health sciences, law, management, and social work. Damn, I know a lot! If you'd like to visit, I live in University Circle, a pretty cool park-like concentration of about 50 cultural, medical, educational, religious, and social service institutions located on 550 acres between a fashionable part of Cleveland and a gang war-zone.

Who I Want to Meet:
The secretary of defense (Donald Rumsfield), the all-time winningest NFL coach (Don Shula), Ecuador's President (Alfredo Palacio), the founder of Craigslist (Craig Newmark), the directors of Arrested Development (the Russo Bros.), Warner Bros. Chairman and CEO (Barry Meyer), and other rich and famous alumni. Or any weary soul who will trade his or her energy and youth for a diploma, a Presti's donut, and a cheap slice of the Mamma Santa's. If you want to add me as a Friendster, my e-mail address is "CWRUfriendster@yahoo.com". And if you want an education, I have no application fee, and will give you scholarships.

you that I thought the South Side was
scary, I cheated on you...I once
journeyed across campus to dine at the
fabled Fribley Commons. Fribley had
Cherry Coke. And none of my friends
ever peed in Fribley.
where someone could put "pi" in
Christmas lights up in his window
and not lose all his friends. Or
where someone could make an
entire backpack out of duct tape and
not get beat up.
If you like wearing your "State Math
Championship" sweatshirt every
single day and singing showtunes
while walking around campus, check
CWRU out. It is probably the (only)
place for you.
But I still miss CWRU a lot,
especially now that I'm living/working
in the real world where nobody
understands my math jokes.
been rename Case with a logo that
looks like Microsoft has just taken
over campus. I spend 5 long years
there, including working as an RA
busting people for drinking alcohol
for the last two. But despite the 2:1
male female ratio and somewhat dull
social life, I had a lot of fond
memories there; staying up making
banners for the inter-dormitory
competition, downloading free movies
from the net, and watching late night
strosacker movies. I still miss the
nerdy culture every now and then.
survived. I can't think of anything else
nice to say about Case.
