Any "Geography Majors" from USF here???

[LaDairis]

The University of South Florida = USF


Anyone?


I just wondered if one was here, so I could ask that person...

How in the world is your "school" called University of South Florida, when it is in Tampa, which is actually in the northern half of the state of Florida, when Florida is bisected top to Keyes?

What genius came up with that name?

As a "Geography major," how can you explain this?

[Al Bundy]

Don't ask me.

[LaDairis]

USF is much closer to the "center" of land mass Florida than Orlando...


But I am a fan of Torell Troup, and hope to see more of him next year. Too bad the Chiefs whiffed on him, would've been a perfect fit here.

Not so much on the closer to the center of the land mass. USF should have been UWF. Troup did ok with the Bills this year, not great though.

No, a "center of land mass" would weight each square foot of land that is FLA.

The Panhandle and, to a much lesser extent, the Keyes, would pull the "center" of "land mass" FLA almost into the Gulf of Mexico.

The center of mass of a donut has no donut in it....


Troup didn't get a lot of snaps, but did well when he did. He should get more now that Stroud is out.

It looks like the Keys are roughly 40 miles south of the edge of the mainland. So even if you move that point 20 miles south, Tampa is still south of it.

I'll accept that, without verification, as the "center of land mass FLA," but as anyone with eyes can see, that is 2/3rds up the state.

Just defining top and bottom and bisecting that puts the N/S line right under Tampa...

I agree that "center of mass" defines "center." The issue of North and South, however, can be accurately portrayed by the bisection of most north and most south...

and to call anything in Tampa "South" Florida is, well, laughable...

Actually, I don't believe even that is accurate. I believe that if take, say, Key West as the most southern part of Florida and Crestview as the most northern, Tampa sits in the southern side.

[Donger]

Just looked it up:

Distance between Crestview and Tampa = 314 miles (as crow flies)

Distance between Key West and Tampa = 237 miles (as crow flies)

Therefore, Tampa is in South Florida.

I am not sure but we already have a University of Central Florida in Orlando, a University of West Florida in Pensacola, a University of North Florida in Jacksonville for state universities with an area of the state in its name. For the southern part of the state we have Florida International University in Miami and a Florida Atlantic in Boca Raton. Then there is Florida State, University of Florida, New College of Florida and Florida A&M that dont have some area of Florida in their names.

But I'll ask as my daughter to see if she knows since she applied there last week as a back up.

[BucEyedPea]

Really? My kid's first choice is Florida State because it has one of the top film schools unlike the others. Although, UF has more highly rated Creative Writing program....both are not that far apart rating-wise for that though.

[JoeyChuckles]

[LaDairis]

Yes, but...

Crestview is almost by Mobile Alabama on the Panhandle, and hence most of that "distance" is EW, not NS...


Nice try.

The halfway line NS in FLA goes right below Tampa, proving that if you take the most northern part of FLA and the most southern part, bisect those two points, Tampa is in the NORTHERN HALF of FLA.


The University of SXXXH, sorry,

USF = University SOMEHWERE in Florida


just not in "South" Florida...

[LaDairis]

It looks like it is closer to Tampa. Why do you ask?



Then "South Florida" is CLOSER to the CENTER of Florida than "CENTRAL Florida," as well as also being in the NORTHERN HALF of Florida...


Gosh, just how difficult can filling out a ballot be...???

:evil:



Also, very confusing, if UCF plays USF, and you say "Go Central Florida," are you talking about the team closer to the center of land mass FLA, or the one further away...???

Being a Florida resident, the money is pretty close to the same at all the schools. We make too much money so he's not going to get any help from the goverment or state. No biggie. We can pay the freight.

He seems to think that USF has a lot of good programs that are in different fields so when he figures out what he wants to do, he won't have to transfer.

He's suppose to make a final decision by the end of next week. I'm trying to stay out of it and make it his choice, not his parents.

[LaDairis]

Can someone please post a MAP of FLA including the Keyes???

She's a girl and I don't have the money for out of state tuition, not after shelling out $9k per year for ten years from elementary to sophomore year. She's a candidate for the state's scholarship too here which won't apply if she goes out-of-state. Besides Florida State is Tier One, though not nearly as high as UF. It has one of the top film schools in the country. After she gets her degree in this state she will go to U of Southern Cal for an Interactive Media degree.

I'd love her to be a 'Nole too!

I am still curious what professional and college teams you actually root for. I haven't seen you start one positive thread about anyone since you decided to grace The Lounge with your presence.

I keep hearing this but it never feels like it is. It's still hot and humid in Miami in late October and in November. I feel like it's central Florida just on the Gulf coast.

I have participated in football discussions here, including the recent one about Wiggy retiring at Center, and how Ryan Lilja did extremely well filing in for two games at C for the Colts 2-4 years ago, not making one bad snap, no penalties, no sacks allowed etc. Lilja should be the Chiefs next Center. Asamoah and Darryl Harris can compete for ORG. And don't ask me who I think should win that...

[BucEyedPea]

Oh well, I was saying USF would only be if I can't come up with the money for room and board for her first year at Florida State because she can commute. I am working on the room an board since most of her tuition is covered and applying to scholarships to cover as well as getting back to work.

I think I read your last post wrong. I thought you posted USF. Maybe I'm dyslexic.

[BigRedChief]

The school doesn't care about geography in finding a name for itself.

University of South Florida has a far better ring to it than University of Florida-Tampa, for instance, and they justify it with Donger's argument.

Over here on the left coast a new state college opened a few years ago in Camarillo.

It named itself Cal State Univerity-Channel Islands.

It's not in the Channel Islands, which are a few miles off the coast, but there it is.

My kid was like that—all over the map from wanting to be a physicist to an author/illustrator/Marine to a pilot. Those are the hardest kids to work with 'cause they don't know. Going to school helps some sort it out more but apprenticing at places can help to.

I finally nailed my daughter down by asking her what she loved to do most of all. And it was game design with no hesitation; said she loved it—specially plots and creating characters. Sounds pretty useless and not very academic but I believe if one does what one is passionate about, they are more likely to succeed and stick with it. This career spends most of their time writing both fiction and non whereas the other type of designer studies visual arts and all the technical programs for games and animation.

BTW since your new here you should look into the Bright Futures Scholarship because it's merit based. I'm sure he has a GC though. If he has the courses, grades and SAT/ACT scores he'd be eligible. It's not that hard to get the Medallion. Look into it.

Oh, I see. That happens. My kid loves school so I've no problem there. Her GPA is 4.09 and her SAT is high but not as high in Math. She likes the ACT math more as it's easier and more predictable to prep for. She'll do 2 more of those and is only 2 points away from the full scholarship. I will be getting her IQ tested in about a month. I haven't done that yet. These aren't IQ tests.

It was also a fact that Frazod had nasty things to say about "TFG" in the Lounge, behind TFG's back, instead of explaining to TFG in the DC section precisely what the "disagreement" was...

If you wish to criticize what someone posts in the DC section, the place to do that is the DC section, not here... at least that's what I've been informed...

See above. I don't know why he hasn't been banned again for the same thing. Albeit, I haven't bothered to search to see if he still uses the term "white n*gger" now or not. He claims that he has since coming back as LaDairis.

Yeah, I see. I also thought coming back with a different user name was a no-no? Oh well, I'm guessing not, since that seems to be the norm anymore.

The message over the rep bars is automatic. Everyone has the same messages once they reach certain levels, either positive or negative.

As for the other, coming back and crying a river isn't going to resolve the issue.

In other words, coward is as coward does, and once a coward, always a coward...

This was a perfectly legit non-political thread in the Lounge, then Donger tried to make it political, and I had to "explain" stuff that is best left in DC...

do you define that as "whining?"

The "cause" for this part of the thread is Donger injecting DC stuff here...

and hoping his flock of future USF Geography majors will simply attack me, not him, for bringing politics here, an old trick by someone who profits from the idiocy of others...

Since when is explaining geographical coordinates a political discussion?

[LaDairis]

The simple truth is that some feel it necessary to hate me for my views, views for some reason they do not have either the mental or intestinal fortitude to attempt to debate in DC, where such discussions belong.


And hence they attack me and try to blame me for bringing politics here to the Lounge, a tactic successfully used before...

[Frazod]

No, TFG was banned with SHTSPRYR in the old topic linked in DC discussed this morning initiated by Banyon?. But TFG was "red" color with something like "Frazod is pssd at u" without ever an explanation of why from Frazod...

Basically, some thought the DC section got a bit "out of hand..." and there was a "purge"

Is THAT why you're so pissed at me? ROFL

It's just the silly comment that goes with the first level of negative rep, you dumbass. I didn't write it, nor do I have any control over it. Unless I happen to be the one who gives you rep, either positive or negative, to land your point total in that range.

This actually isn't the first moron to blame this on me.

[Donger]

First zionist then white n-word...

That? I thought after Global Warming was brought (to which you responded politically), all was fair game. Was I wrong with that assumption?

Then again, what's wrong with people knowing that you have used and do use those words over in DC?

[JD10367]

When I lived in Tampa, I actually wondered why it was called USF. Tampa is clearly in the center of the state thinking north-south. Jacksonville and Pensecola are north, Tampa and Orlando and Daytona are center, and Miami and Ft. Lauderdale and the Keys are south.

I think the reasoning is probably simple: when the university was founded (50s/60s), there really WAS no "central Florida". Orlando was a tiny shithole until Walt stuck his mouse house there. There would have been no reason to want people to think of "central Florida" when they thought of the school. Putting "south" in the title, OTOH, would invoke thoughts of warm sunny climes and would entice kids to want to go to school there.

Not really. I answered to the thread at first in Post #30, as well as another. Not much more to add after that. Then I just digressed in Post #31 which someone took me up on. Where the two of us digressed some more....even pm'd me. It was all good between us. It happens.

Curious, this correlation here.


You were listed as the reason for TFG's "red" rating, and you were bashing TFG in the Lounge, and you clearly didn't like TFG in the final topic linked in DC today...

and all of this was just coincidence...

and your name on the, whatever bar, that's coincidence, and the fact that you were hating TFG behind TFG's back, pure coincidence... at the same time.


Somehow, that's pretty difficult to believe...

You brought up Global Warming.

I responded by comparing your reading comprehension to Dexter Manley's.



Clearly, you really hate me and the truth I spread, and you are obsessed with trying to start some sort of eruption of political dialogue in a thread about USF... in the Lounge...

I don't follow you around documenting the truth that you take money from a foreign country to push what many consider to be treason here, and its not the first time treason has originated from your "faith" either...

Rather, I simply document that in the DC forum where it belongs.


How many times do you intend to follow me into the Lounge and plant politics in my Lounge topics???

You hit a level in the negative rep that simply had Frazod's line attached to it because his rants in the early days of the planet were legendary.

He had nothing to do with the actual designation of those rep levels.

I mean, come on... he's done exactly the same here with LaDairis...

BTW - I really do like USF C Sampson Genus, who is being dissed for lack of height, but is really one great athlete and a heck of a good C, and worth a look in round 7 'cause if the Chiefs don't draft him, he ain't gonna come here as an undrafted - he'll stay in FLA.
