campus rivalries?
OK, this is for people who go to multi-campus universities: is there a lot of rivalry between the campuses (or campi, whatever you prefer)? I go to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst- that's the main campus, the one with the Division I basketball. UMass has three other campuses- Boston, Dartmouth, and Lowell. With Boston and Dartmouth, it's not that big a deal, because they're Division III schools, and we don't play them- although I've gotten into HUGE arguments with people from UMassD over which school is better.
But with the Lowell campus, oh I hate them. They're so bloody uppity. We play them in hockey (it's their only Division I sport), and nothing makes me madder than them shouting 'UML! UML!' like a bunch of idiots. grrrrrrr.
It's actually UMass's only real rivalry, now that we don't play UConn in anything. Is there anything like this anywhere else?
