It's the Parson's College of IH boards.

A Year at Parsons College 1967-68: The Last Days of Fairfield’s Second Chance College

When I applied to colleges, most of them said, in essence, “You have got to be kidding,” but Parsons wrote back and said yes. Back then, guidance counselors all over the U.S. knew about Parsons.

It was a place that would take students nobody else would. It must have been true because they took me, and the next thing I knew I was on the plane to a place called Ottumwa, Iowa.

Roberts believed that students should be given a second chance at college no matter how they had performed before, so he accepted students who had dropped out or flunked out of other colleges. This earned him the nickname “The Wizard of Flunk-Out U.”

He also recruited top faculty members from all over the country and paid them top dollar. At one time they were the second highest paid teachers in the country—only Harvard paid more.

Party On!

Parsons was also a big-time party school. There were lots of fraternities and sororities. As I remember, one of the wildest ones was called One Time Greeks, or OTG. This was made up of guys who had been kicked out of a fraternity for one reason or another. Another was called WTBA, or Where the Boys Are. Many of the guys in this group had both a motorcycle and a sports car.

Good. Now i know 100% (as thought) that search links cater to what the net knows about the client that
clicks it. They don't carry info from one to another. Could say search links are not faithful at all. LOL

And yeah, that CAB swamp is a forlorn area, for sure. Fuck off fly.
