All true, i went there for almost two years before realizing i had simply fallen asleep waiting for the 51 bus on Terwilliger blvd.

You are all idiots. First of all its called googlemaps. Since you obviously know what a computer is why don't you try using one for other sources of promising information. Secondly, how is it the Keysor Soze in reverse? Keysor Soze is a fictitious character created by the brilliant mind of Kevin Spacey's character and he turns out to in fact not be real- although all the other usual suspects believe in his authoritative existence. So would that not just be a Keysor Soze? Not a Keysor Soze in reverse? Seriously, there are even Lewis and Clark signs on the freeway. Do you get lost making your way to the bathroom as well? Maybe Lewis and Clark is only made available to individuals who celebrate higher consciousness and understand the importance of an amazing education. Your article is not only offensive to the students at Lewis and Clark but also is a disrespectful assessment of the Portland collegiate system as a whole. Get some class and rep your city better.

at least at LC, we can smoke weed all day AND manage to complete all our work successfully.

Lewis & Clark is reputable institution with many accomplishments. The fact that you can't seem to use a map, is beyond me. As an alum, I can say that I spent the best 4 years of my life at this school and it has helped me to achieve a great many things.

Just because we don't have an expansive list of famous people that have attended our school doesn't detract from the fact that we have the one of the most beautiful campuses in the country and is fifth in the country for alum of small schools entering Peace Corps service. While we may not have celebrities who both achieve next to nothing at school and then go on to do almost next to nothing after graduation, we have a strong body of current students and alumni who are conscientious members of society.

Let me guess, you went to PSU or some shit.

I attended Lewis and Clark for graduate school. My girlfriend at the time dumped me on speaker phone while I was driving there, on the Fremont Bridge. I burst into tears as I got off at the Terwilliger exit, and sobbed as I circled back over the freeway along the Terwilliger Boulevard overpass. I passed the Market of Choice in waves of panic. I spun through the traffic circle by the law school and took the second exit, this time barely wondering if the undergrad on the sidewalk would decide to cross.

The summer term made it so I didn't have to pay for parking. I told my teacher I couldn't go to class today, and he told me to take care of myself. I went to a part of campus that looks out over Mt Hood and an outdoor swimming pool, near the library. I called every friend I could, and I melted down to my best friend over the phone.

It was there, in that moment, that a tour of prospective students appeared, 10 feet from me, as I choked out a sob of "I just.... wanna... DIEEEEEEE." I was embarrassed for a second, but then I was glad. Lewis and Clark is a great school, with caring faculty and a wonderful library. The woman who works in Teacher Licensing is a magician and a saint. But going there won't protect you from the shitty things in life, no matter what that tour guide tells you.

If you can't find Lewis and Clark College, then you don't deserve to give Bill Clinton -- or any other president -- a blow job.

Please wait...
