Northwestern Quotes, 2002-2003
So, you might infer by "Northwestern Quotes" that all these quotes come from people who attend Northwestern. You'd also be wrong. In fact it's a composite of all non-quiz bowl and professor quotes that come in during my Northwestern tenure. I'd been adding to 01-02, but now that the school year is upon us, it's time to start another one. So here you go.
Current suite tally, this year only: Drew 13, Marc 5, Dave 1, Ric 1, Rich 1.
Continued dual quotage:
At Shannon's party, speculation on why Fallon had not showed up yet:

day."

real."

some way for WNUR Sports to make $130 a week... like a Northwestern sports interviewing

More dual quotage! In fact, triple quotage:

himself against not realizing I mean the "collective you."

everything I say."
