Most Vivid Memory of WKU

-WKU hoops advancing to the Sweet 16, knocking out #2 seed Seton Hall my senior year (’93).  That season was the loudest I’ve ever heard Diddle Arena.   

-Sitting through Professor Spurlock’s literature class was like being transported into “Dead Poet’s Society” with Robin Williams.  It was what I always thought a college course was “supposed” to be like.
