Heroes & Villains: We Want It That Way
We're kvelling like Boca Raton bubbes down at the Bat Cave this week. It turns out that one of the HEROES of NBC's resurrected American Gladiators series went to Cornell, proving once again that Cornell is the only Ivy that offers a practical, real-world education.

"More and more recruiters are taking note of 'net reputations,'" Powell said.
