pawIt’s not until you’re an alumni that you realize that you want the stock of your school to go up. Not only has FIU produced such luminaries as Gloria Estefan and Rep. Ilena Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fl.) (a.k.a. “The Cuba Lobby”), but it now also has Dennis Lehane under its belt. Lehane graduated with an MFA from the school’s Creative Writing program and went on to write the book on which the movie “Mystic River” (which just got a gazillion Oscar nominations) is based on. It goes to show that if you pass out 30,000 degrees a year, you’re bound to hit paydirt every once in a while. Hit it, maestro:

From the green fields of Tamiami,
To to north shore of Biscayne Bay,
Here’s a place where we can gather,
Where Golden Panthers hunt their prey!
Anyone who tries to defeat us,
Better think twice and stand aside;
Bring them here with their fear to Miami,
And when they come, we will show our Panther Pride!

Golden Panthers, see the paw,
We will fight, you’ll feel the claw!
Let’s go Panthers, Gold and Blue,
Fight for FIU!
