The chat bunch strikes again! In one of the recents chat sessions, the idea was raised about posting our own Alma Maters on this message board. My hope, personally, is that this thread leads to some information about how things were like back in the day when we were growing up. Sort of add some flavor to our research efforts.

Okay, I will start it off with some of my Alma Maters and those I remember from places I have lived. I did not attend them all, but they deserve mention by me nevertheless because they might, just might, tickle a memory or two.
