FELINE FRIENDS, 110/365


Rather than risk discussion, discerning coeds know better than to walk too close to these "Feline Friends," Theme #97. This is the lion fountain near Stanley Coulter Hall on the Purdue University campus.
Legend has it that if a virgin passes nearby, the lions will roar.

  4. Great take on the theme. I guess every university has a similar landmark on campus, huh?

  5. What a funny story! And, Julie (comment #1)...for college girls intent on finishing a degree...better to give it a wide berth, than to give birth!
