The brother school of Louisville, and also of La Reina (top a lesser extent). Has a reputation of having the rich boys that either have IEPs or didn't get into Loyola. Most students wish they could date girls from their sister schools, but the Louisville teachers even tell thier students that Crespi "men" are losers, so the girls flock toward Loyola guys. Sorry Crespi.
Their education is notoriously bad, as is evidenced by the lack of proper grammar and spelling in their newspaper, The Celt.
Recent controversy at Crespi includes (but isn't limited to) the swine flu rumors and the Louisville news scare. The swine flu rumor fiasco involved faculty incorrectly reporting the closing of Louisville a few days before the Crespi prom, citing swine flu as the cause. Louisville (which ghained the name flueyville because of it's 11 h1n1 cases) was not closed, and the confusion in scheduling (several siblings created issues) resulted in a major upsurge in absentees the next day. Another issue stemmed from the Celt's piece on the Louisville winter formal, which was quite derogatory and included the description of Louisville students as "Boring and unattractive". The Louisville asb countered by boycotting the paper, and refusing to distribute it for several issues. The first issue that was passed out at Louisville afterward contained a love poem to all Louisville girls, but no mention of the fiasco was made until the final issue. Apparently, the Celt's editor had stopped editing after his college acceptance, and articles were slapped together on printing day. This might also have accounted for the mistakes and several unfinished or unpublished issues.

Crespi also has ugliest ever colors, and force Louisville/La Reina girls into brown and yellow cheer uniforms.

Get the Crespi mug.by Davisonderson August 21, 2006
Get the Crappic mug.the act of allowing an automobile to approach the car ahead because the driver has set his cruise control but is not paying attention to traffic conditions. the noun form of the phrase is "cruise control creeper."
while driving down a two-lane country road, i noticed in my rear view mirror a large foreign sedan approaching my car from behind. his speed was almost the same as mine, just a little quicker, so his approach was pretty slow. still, he kept on getting closer, until i could no longer see his front bumper. suddenly, just as i thought he was going to ram me, he swerved left and passed me at a rapid pace, glaring at me as he passed. he left me behind at the same slow rate as he approached me. i figured he was cruise control creeping, because he was gabbing on a cell phone. to avoid becoming a cruise control creeper myself, i reset my own cruise control and let the other car go about his merry way. after i flipped him off.

Get the cruise control creeping mug.The worst possible traffic you can be in. The kind that plagues major metropolitan areas during rush hour, or occurs behind an accident. You replace the "t" in traffic with a "c" and the "ff" with a "pp" - you get crappic. Crappic doesn't need a modifier. There's no such thing as bad crappic. if it's that bad, it's crappic . . . if it isn't that bad, it's just traffic.

Get the crappic mug.Crespination is a creative or inventive act of lying during an argument about the existence of an product or invention and then later using the internet to prove its existence. True lack of knowledge about the existence of the object under contention is required for authentic crespination. Since the advent of cheap mobile internet devices, incidences of crespination are riskier to the reputation and have been in decline.
Crespination's dark side is known to all persons of an inventive nature. The chances of finding that something has already been invented are close to 100 percent if the inventor dares to inspect the internet.

Person 1: "It is annoying to hold that ice pack to your arm. You need an ice sleeve for that bee sting on your elbow." (Person 1 is engaging in crespination.)
Person 2: "There is no such thing as an ice sleeve." (Person 2 is correct based on the current knowledge of both parties.)
Person 1: "Yes, there is. Let's look it up when we get back to the farm." (Person 1 is aware that she lacks the facts to back up this statement but confident that the internet will back her up.)
