Seven reasons to be Vandal Print E-mail
Written by AL - for the Editorial Board   
Friday, 28 March 2008
Greetings Vandal Friday guests, and welcome to the University of Idaho. There’s a good chance you’re new to Moscow, which means you have a lot to see in the next day or two. While you’re thinking about living arrangements and classes, don’t forget to consider what UI can offer you that may not be in the brochures. Here are a few more reasons that UI rocks.

1. Your parents are far enough away to consider yourself an adult, but close enough to help if you prove yourself wrong.

2. You’ll see three seasons in Moscow — spring, fall and magical winter. Spring and fall are nice. Magical winter turns class days into ski days. Magic!

3. UI students never have to wonder if a person wearing Vandal athletics gear is actually a fan, or just doing it because it’s trendy.

4. In a 1/2 mile radius, UI students can buy a steamed bagel, authentic gyro, late-night pita and tie-dyed panties.

5. Most mascots tend to enthrall young children, ours usually makes them cry.

6. UI offers an excellent education for the price of a car, in a town where you don’t need to drive.

7. Moscow rent (and several Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers) can be paid for entirely with the proceeds from plasma donation.
