Ahh yes, not just an Oregon State alum, was a Tailflapper and got to be Benny Beaver a few times.

Been following this. Most disgusting part was when the current university president - whatever his name is - said he'd never wear a kilt.

Have only seen swatches, yet to see a pic of a kilt in the OSU tartan, gotta be intense with all that orange.

For you honored rivals at U of Oregon (Duck U), there are lots of "Irish" tartans that are thick with green, gold, and white to tide you over until the folks in Eugene get rolling with their tartan.
