Creepiest School Name

[rainjacktx]

I'm just going to throw this out there - I think Austin Veritas is the creepiest name for a school I've heard in some time.

I know, I know - Veritas is some Roman goddess of honesty or wisdom or some crap. But when I hear "Veritas", All I can see is James O'Keef and his army of hidden cameras.

Nothing against the kids or the parents at Austin Veritas. I mean not unless you had a hand in naming it. Then it's all your fault.

"Veritas" is Latin for "truth," if my old feeble memory is accurate.

Seems those hidden cameras weren't any problem when they were done by 60 Minutes or others ... seems I remember one that ABC News did where their hidden camera folks encouraged grocery store employees to sell post-dated meat. I guess it depends on whose ox is being gored, and from what I see, the guys whose ox is getting the goring are more used to doing the goring than being gored.

Veritas is the motto of Harvard

Lux et Veritas is the motto of Yale

Yale has always said that the difference between a Harvard man and a Yale man is that the Harvard man has yet to see the light
