The task of a university is the creation of the future so far as rational thought and civilized modes of appreciation can affect the issue.
My mother was a terrific force in my life. Wartime-generation woman hadn't gone to university but should have done. Was very funny very verbal very clever very witty.
But it wasn't until I graduated from Texas A & M University and joined the United States Air Force flying C-130's all around the globe that I truly appreciated the blessings of freedom.
So here we are today with a new conversation. When University of Georgia plays Georgia Tech it's uniform color versus skin color. We have - we've overcome that level of racial fear.
I studied Hitchcock a little bit at University and knew the famous story about the Birds - that he'd tortured Tippi for a day using real birds. I had no idea that it was a five-day onslaught and that it was the tip of an iceberg that carried on through to another film.
I know somebody from university who's called Phil Collins and I think there's something terribly unfortunate about sharing a name With somebody who either is famous or becomes famous.

A university is not a political party and an education is not an indoctrination.
