The Alumni Association estimates there are 80,000 living University of
Idaho alumni worldwide with over 45 percent of them residing in Idaho.
So I shouldn’t have been surprised when I met Gus Vitolin last week.
I met Vitolin in Post Falls, Idaho after I noticed he was having some
difficulty with his car. When I offered him my phone, he asked if I
wouldn’t mind giving him a ride to his home nearby. I don’t normally
give rides to random strangers, but Vitolin, an older gentleman with a
kind demeanor and heavy accent, really needed help. During the short
trip Vitolin asked where I was from and his face lit up when he found
out I was a Vandal.
