Well, around Central NY, all I hear about is Utica's chicken riggies. Chicken riggies, chicken riggies. They eat that stuff up. We also have a pretty good ice hockey team and around a million and one super impressive alumni. But when I go home, the thing I brag about the most to my friends and family is our student-run newspaper. It might not have made a splash in the media world just yet, but it has the potential to be greater than anyone has ever seen. It's ours and we made it. That's everything.
