Don't forget about two other ISU economics grads that went on to international leadership: John Garang, former VP of Sudan and leader of the PLA (who tragically died a few years back early in his vice presidency), and Lee Teng-hui, who was a long-time president of Taiwan.
See folks, that's what a degree from Iowa State can get you.
Also started the Sudan/Darfur conflict/civil war. Now you've all learned two things today.
Awesome! We have a guy who started one of the bloodiest conflicts of the new millenium, a guy who may be involved in some major election fraud, AND our university helped enrich uranium for the atomic bomb? I didn't realize ISU stood for International Strife University. I'm a little worried that I'm going to turn 30 and suddenly decide to invade Canada.
Hear that KU? You won a National Championship but we started the Sudan war AND had the first fax machine. Boom
That OFFICIALLY makes us better than Baylor too! **** you Ochoprimo!
Ochoprimo - that's awesome :biglaugh:

He didn't finish did he? Been awhile since I read about it, just don't remember.I still think the coolest fun fact is the founder of Hooters is an ISU grad. Just surprised that considering that they don't have a Hooters in Ames!
