When I went to UT, I lived in a residence hall named after the great mathematician, R L Moore. Moore was also a racist who hated blacks, women, and Jews, so nothing really changes in Texas. Good thing I escaped that environment by spending most of my time at Hippie Hollow!
Moore-Hill Hall? I thought that was the jock dorm.
Jocks? I thought the brochure just said that you had to be "jocular." My mistake!
