How Many Of You Haven't Graduated From the U of A?

[Rooka]

How many Hog fans here on Hogville haven't attended the U of A?

I graduated from ASU in '12, and am about to go back to get my degree in Physical Therapy which I wished U of A offered, but unfortunately they don't. I keep telling my buddies and wife, I will graduate from U of A one day even if it's just for fun. They all think I'm crazy, but oh well time and money will be the ultimate decider. Thought I would just ask around and see how many others graduated from other institutions.

GO HOGS

When I was in the 10th grade at Rison High School, my dad asked me if I had ever considered going to the Air Force Academy, and I told him I hadn't. He then told me that I would be going to work for a living after graduation if I wasn't accepted to USAFA, so I decided that maybe I should try to get in. I was successful. If I hadn't gone to the Academy, I would have gotten some kind of job to help me pay/work my way through UA-Fayetteville. At this point, I am a fan, but I'll never be an alumnus.

[Woopig69]

I have degrees from Asu and UofA.

[Rooka]

I have degrees from Asu and UofA.

Hoping to be you one day, sir.

[Professor Psychosis]

I never went to college myself.  I have considered it, but it's not in my plans right now.

I am a fan because I grew up watching my uncle and my grandpa cuss at Hatfield on Saturdays.  Growing up in the state of Arkansas about 60 miles from Fayetteville ensured that those early memories translated to lifelong fandom.

There is no pro team to follow in Arkansas, because the Razorbacks ARE that team, and they always will be.

Amen to that. It doesn't matter if you attend college or not. Attend U of A or not, the Arkansas Razorbacks don't just represent a great university, they represent this ENTIRE state.

the only downside is the student loans that go along with it. 

[greenie]

UA - 1984
MU - 1987
KU - 1992

But there's no confusion for this McGehee boy...Go Hogs!!

[Bad News Boar]

Graduated from the UofA in December of 2013. Loved every second of being there.

[rhog1]

I didn't attend the Fayetteville campus. I graduated from the University of Arkansas Monticello.

Yeah, after my first degree with ASU, I was debt free. A huge incentive as to why I went their in the first place, that and personal stuff with family. I would have loved to take this new degree at U of A, but they don't offer it.  If I am still up and going in my sixties, I believe you can take classes for free as far as tuition goes. I may not ever get the degree, but I could at least take some classes and feel a part of U of A one day. Call it a crazy dream, but would be ideal.

[ATLHog]

UCA graduate & lifelong Hog fan

[gawntrail]

I did not.

[Bardicer]

Arkansas tech, class of 2012.  Attend Marquette, asu-beebe, and ualr though. Got my bachelor, and no need for a master's do my formal education is done.

[Hogfan1660]

I did not attend UA but have been a Hog Fan since the 70's. My parents are both Hog Fans but not to the extent that my wife and I are.

Wow Marquette, did you go up to campus or was it online?

[Racing Hog]

U of A Fort Smith grad here.

[reddogjcss]

UAM Monticello 1982

[WriterWrong]

OBU grad here. I wanted to transfer to UA basically every semester. Never did. Still love the idea of graduating there and having my name on a sidewalk on the Hill. Maybe some day.

[SantaHog]

I attended the U of A, but did not graduate there.  Graduated from A&M(Texarkana).

[Youngsta71701]

[LRHawg]

Attended 2 years, ended up graduating elsewhere (OBU).

[zane]

Undergrad from stAte

Med School in Cali


I would like to get an MBA or MPH (or something along those lines) when I finish residency. I'm hoping UofA has a complete online option by that time (still a few years to go).

[AugustaHog]

My parents moved to GA right before high school.  At the time, the state of Georgia basically paid for you to go college if you had good grades.  I couldn't afford to leave the state at that point.  I got my BS at Valdosta State (they won 2 national titles while I was there) and pursued my DMD at MCG.  No dental schools in the state of AR plus the ridiculously affordable in state tuition left that door closed.  I love my Hogs and will always love them.  Hopefully I will be able to steer one of my kids up that way (my 2 year old already calls the Hogs proudly!).  I really wish that I had the opportunity to go to the UofA, but can't say that I regret the path my life has lead me on. 

[Pork Twain]

Joined the USAF after high school graduation and got my degrees while in (BS in criminal justice in 2005 from Wayland Baptist and MS in Homeland Security from Capella in 2012, currently working on MBA in project management from Kaplan), sadly not at UofA.  I also love the St Louis Cardinals and Dallas Cowboys and never played for either of them.

[Gerald Gilber]

Proud College of the Ozarks Grad class of 76 but have been a life long Hog fan

[kingcam25]

[HappyFan]

I did not. U.S. Navy out of High school. Lived out of state since then. Arkansas is still "home" and the Hogs are a part of that.

[tbhogfan]

UA Class of '80.   

[Rooka]

Sometimes I get asked especially around ASU if I have a Hog shirt on, if I ever attended the University. I always tell them, that that Hog I wear doesn't just symbolize a University. It symbolized my family and the rich memories we will forever share because of it. It becomes your identity long before you ever even know what going to college is.

I will support ASU because I was a student, but I live and die by the Hogs because my grandfather did, father did, and now I do.

[rmcchris]

Went to ASU with girlfriend. She cheated on me, that whore. I would have transferred to Fayetteville but In was almost finished. So I Stayed. Met my wife in Batesville. Been happily married for 8 years now, so I guess it worked out. But I still wish I had gone to Arkansas.

Never say never my friend. You never know what this life will bring to you.

I think U of A is starting a PT program this fall. Could be wrong, but that's what I think I heard someone say.

[Mark Martin Fan]

89-BSCE UofA
91-MBA UT Austin.  Got to watch the Lady Razorbacks end the Lady Longhorns 132 game SWC winning streak (http://www.tulsaworld.com/archives/lady-razorbacks-end-texas-streak/article_be690c0f-464d-53c3-816c-b892cd322112.html)
Was also there to watch the Strollin Nolan game where Nolan walked off, Lee Mayberry hit a long 3 to go to overtime and we killed them in OT after Nolan came back out. 
Also got to see the first two rounds of the Razorbacks in their 1990 NCAA tourney drive to the final 4.  4 point win over Princeton, 2 point win over Dayton.
Wore my Razorback gear the entire 2 years I was in Austin and grew to despise their fanbase attitude even more than I did before I got there. 

[PORKULATOR]

I did not attend the University...  I went to Arkansas Tech and then to the USAF.
