George Mason Fever

March 31, 2006 at 8:29 am

Here’s the ultimate evidence that George Mason University’s basketball team has reached Redskins-like status in the nation’s capital — GMU President Alan Merten was featured on C-SPAN’s “Washington Journal” this morning.  What a delight to hear Brian Lamb talk NCAA b’ball.

Merten said getting into the Final Four ranks as one of the three great moments in GMU history — the other two being the Nobel Prizes his professors have won.  And get this — he also said GMU ranks in the top five for google searches.

So, with C-SPAN as our cover, and as all the signs in Northern Virginia say today — Go Mason!
