every race has its history, but poland has its for sure. they were invaded by germans, huns, and the russians. they really have their history. they are very hard working people who are known for their fencing and being invaded by neighbors of their nation, especially the germans.
i was born in america with polish ancestry. i am 15% polish. when my family came here, they struggled. those who were wiped out because of the nazis are always rememered. those that came to america, i wish well on their journey.

Get the poland mug.Not to be confused with the original Cal Poly (SLO), it was SLO's satellite campus up until 1966, when it became big enough and split off on its own. Most people are unaware that the Pomona campus exists separately.
It is well renowned for its excellent engineering programs (the College of Engineering was ranked 9th in the nation for 2004), ranks as the #2 CSU for engineering (after Cal Poly SLO), and ranks second in the nation (behind Cornell) for hotel and restaurant management. Like its SLO sister, it holds true to the "learn by doing" philosophy, by integrating practice into traditional theory education. However, unlike SLO, CPP does accept a hefty number of dumbasses, which pretty much has screwed their reputation.
But at the same time, unlike SLO, it is mainly a commuter school and the social environment is just plain bland.
It also boasts as one of the most ethnically diverse campuses in the nation (30% Asian, 28% White, 28% Hispanic, 5% Black), whereas SLO is mostly white.
A serious university for serious students. We only care to go to school for studying, not to go partying.

Cal Poly Pomona is definitely an underrated school, but the admissions staff seriously needs to increase their standards.
Person 1: Where do you go?
Person 2: Cal Poly.
Person 1: Oh, SLO?
Person 2: Umm... noooooes, the other one.

Get the Cal Poly Pomona mug.A Central European country that has suffered immensely through the centuries because of being coveted by larger neighbors. The reputation of Poles being stupid came from them being willing to fight for their country and their freedom when they had no chance in hell of winning. Poland, contrary to popular belief, is a very cultured country that has produced many great scientists, authors, artists, writers, film directors, etc. Poland is now in the European Union. The most negative thing about Poland, however, is the lingering tradition of antisemitism that has survived even though Poland has almost no Jews. This is ironic because Poland before the Russians came in was not as anti-semitic as other European countries ; the Russians introduced the virus of antisemitism into Poland and unfortunately it remained. It probably thrived because of Poles' pride in their Catholicism (even under Communist rule the church remained strong) causing them to look suspiciously upon non-Catholics. Nevertheless Poland has made many great contributions to the world, and perhaps the greatest was the Polish Resistance fighting the Nazis when they had no hope of prevailing against Hitler's war machine. Millions of Poles died in the Nazi concentration camps built on Polish soil. Lech Walesa's Solidarity movement, with the backing of the Polish Pope John Paul II, helped bring down Communism ; Poland was the first communist country to return to democratic rule.

Get the Pomni mug.The only reason Pompano Beach High School has any students is because of no school on Fridays.
Teachers show up drunk, sleep with students, and do drugs in their cars.
Favoritism over students is a definite.
Most kids who attend make attempts at being "ghetto" but fail miserably.
