Get the portmanteau mug.a briefcase school known for its unattached student body and terrible athletics. Students only concerned with getting in and getting out, without going through the college experience. Consistent growing fan base of 5 students per football game, 2 for mens basketball, and none for womens basketball, where scores run low. Should be a D-III school, but somehow paid its way to D1. Mascot is the Viking, which it stole from every other college, high school, and middle school. Alumni hate PSU, students go there to not be bothered, and scum creeps up from the street to take part in their athletics. Go Viks!

It may not be New York City, but it's still pretty awesome and has some of the best food in the country!!! Actually, years and years ago, Portland had some of the tallest buildings in the country. But like I said that was a long time ago. :)
