University Tartans

[jfellrath]

I would LOVE to get a kilt with the Irish Guard tartan, but as I was never a member of the guard I'll never be able to get one unless I pry it away from a former guard member. One of my suitemates one year was in the guard... He was a bit taller than me, too. As only a six-footer I'd never have been able to get into the guard.

It's registered with the Scottish Tartan Authority.

ND not only has a pipe band, but also a Hurling club as well. Why wasn't this stuff around in 1987 when I got there?

We just missed each other. I graduated in 1987. Where did you live? I was in Sorin all four years.

I would never have been able to be in the guard either. Where as you are only 2 inches too short, I am over 6 inches too short.

Oh well.

I was in Grace for three years and Stanford for one. At least I have one dorm I can go back to that isn't an office now...

My dad was in Sorin for two years ('65 grad). He loved it there, but he said the cockroach races in St. Ed's were much better than those in Sorin or Morrissey.
