Somewhat odd list for “kids”. I might try to go a bit more contemporary. I don’t know them well, but music-The Chainsmokers?

Colombo too, good old Peter Falk.

 

[DoubleDee]

Um, you left out Lex Steele?

 

[CA Monk]

And SU loves him for the money he gave to Newhouse that puts the school ahead of the rest of the conference in being ready for the ACC Network.

I did not know about Felix Cavaliere. Thanks!

Eileen Collins.
And I would have included a line for Athletics with all the obvious ones.

The tweet was aimed at what could be achieved outside of athletics with an SU degree.

Ahh. Didn't notice that but might have been even more relevant to include athletes who excelled in other fields then like Dave Bing and Jim Brown.

Tony Award winning broadway Star Jessie Mueller wouldn't be a bad addition too. She's doing incredibly well. And is quite young. Good reminder of our drama department, too. Big second for Lou Reed, who still has great relevance with multiple generations. Amazing talent, RIP.

Aaron Sorkin is another well known one...Taggart is the member of the Chainsmokers who went to Cuse -- would be a great add as someone else said.

My Dad's a pretty good guy, but not much name recognition. More under the radar.

 

[wfschrec]

Betsy Johnson and John C McGinley although McGinley didn't receive his degree he transferred also Tom Everett Scott. Also why not Robert Jarvik, dude only invented the artificial heart.

 

[Dcuse]

Drake, Jay Z, Beyoncé and Lebron James. Just tell recruits they went here.

Underrated in my opinion!!!

Vera Farmiga lived next door to me my freshman year in Shaw Hall.

Nice girl, wanted no part of me, which showed great judgement at an early age.

Not good acting however, if she had been nice to you and you had bought it, that would have proven her acting chops way back then

I don’t think even Meryl Streep could fake that.

Another politician Warren Rudman. Highly respected by both parties, at least during the time he served.

If a recruit’s parents need to use google to understand a reference to a “famous” person, then that’s probably not a great name to drop to a recruit in a tweet like this.
