lol, doesn't give a damn about curiculum. Hey Mr. RollinsCollege Admission Advisor. I do'nt care about your program, don't even care about my major, but how's the fishing? It sure is an expensive fishing college.

Fishie1 · 09-24-06, 01:00 PM

haha yeah....I know...lol but then again if I could get in there and get some scholarships it seems like it would be pretty nice.

Rollins is on the Winter Park chain. Yes the fishing is good there. Yes there are some big fish there. I think there are 6-7 connected lakes.

Christopherkeene9 · 09-26-06, 09:12 PM

Yeah Fl got it right, go by there every once in awhile but never fished it (no boat, at least not one that can do the job right)

FlyRod · 09-26-06, 10:03 PM

Let's cut to the chase, shall we?

Oldest recognized college in Flawduh...wow! I'll bet Bobby Bowden was in the first graduating class

I seriously considered local fisheries when making my collegiate choice, although UA was probably not the best on a list of schools with good lakes nearby. Auburn is close to Eufaula, Tennessee is on the Tennessee river, UNA was right on Pickwick, FSU has plenty of opportunities and The University of the South is very close to Tims Ford. But I guess I still found every spot there is in Tuscaloosa county, and made them work.

Fishing is important and so is the college education but lets not forget about the "scenery". That is, how bout' them college girls? Questions that you might want to ask should include:

1) What is the ratio of men to woman?
2) Is it a dry campus?
3) Do the local establishments have a cheap beer night (50 cent drafts)
4) What is the school mascot and has anyone kidnapped the mascot?
5) Is Dean Wermer employed at the school? If so, in what capacity?

flfireman · 09-28-06, 09:26 PM

It's a suburb of O town. There are places everywhere to drink. There is some $$$$ there, and I have seen plenty of women- my God man it's in Fl. Who cares about the mascot. Biggest thing not mentioned- you'll be getting a college degree.
