Univ. of Minn. Duluth lets it all hang out

Parents of Duluth students: Have you helped move your student into the U?

If not, you might want to read this.

Today’s Duluth News Tribune has a real eye-opener of a front-page article — along with a slide show — about what you’ll see during the student move-in period.

Check out the signs that the U’s young men and women are holding:

“Dads, she’s in our hands now”

“Wieners 4 Daughters”

“C’s get degrees and so do DD’s”

You get the idea. Here’s the photo gallery (which carries a warning of explicit content), and the main story is here.
