Sort of random but I was wondering if anyone could compile a list of schools our cast members attended. I only know a few of them since they rarely discuss their education on the show anymore...I'll begin with the few that I know. Veronica- UC Berkeley Julie- BYU Johnny- Penn State Jillian- Cal State Los Angeles? Colie- Tulane Shauvon- Sacramento State Any others?
Jillian initially went to Florida State, but transferred after she and Frank decided to live together. Ibis - University of Florida Mark Long - Florida State (UF as well?) Ayanna - Howard University Shawn (Semester at Sea) - University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill) Abram - University of Montana, UCLA Cara - Bowling Green? Tina - Wesleyan (something like that, I think in Nebraska?) MJ - Vanderbilt Landon - University of Wisconsin (River Falls and Madison) Karamo - FAMU Sarah - Emory University - undergraduate, University of Florida - graduate Melanie - UC Santa Cruz Shavonda - Grossmont College (and I think perhaps another one - she's still doing school) Jamie (RW SD) and Johanna - UC Riverside Nick (RW Hollywood) and Melissa Howard - University of South Florida Justin - Harvard (I think?) Syrus - University of Hawaii Tyler - Tufts Sarah (Hollywood), Brittini, Wes - ASU Jose - Florida State Adam - Stanford University
I have a few questions concerning The Miz. Why was he hated during the Inferno 2? and I dont mean cause he was voted in each time, but I remember him saying "everyone here hates me/doesn't like me" was it because he was way more popular than the rest? was it because he was brancing out of the reality world? or was it because he was getting a big head due to his rising fame? Second what does he even keep in contact with anyone fom the shows? Because if you judge by his twitter he doesn't follow any of them, even Lori who I always thought they still got along with.

Because the fans may have been sick of him at that point (I was) and the challengers had to deal with him constantly and he seemed pretty toolish so that would get obnoxious after awhile, I'd say.
If any of you has a contact that works on mtv.com let them know the inferno 3 vids don't work, its the only challenge i've never seen and I really wanna see Timmy's last hurrah.

Mike the Miz was starting to get annoying with the challenges, but it would be nice to see him go against current challenge regulars like Kenny and Evan.
I'd love to see Kenny vs Miz...wanna be pro wrestler vs actual pro wrestler.
In reply to Entropy's inquiry about Mike and the cast during Inferno 2: I don't think anyone hated Mike on I2. If he made that comment during the show, I think he took it to mean that they were gunning for him in the game - voting wise and wanting to beat him because he was seen as a top dog/leader for the GG. The big reason he kept getting voted in was because Darrell and Brad had a cross team alliance with CT and Derrick. Darrell also had an alliance with Abram. Plus Darrell was good friends with Rachel and seemed cool with Veronica and Tina, too. Brad was said to have been the most liked person there, too (apparently Derrick/CT said that). So John, Mike, and Landon were the guys left for the BA guys to choose from. I think CT's constant focus on Mike had something to do with him protecting Darrell and Brad. Derrick wanted to challenge Mike because he was voted out before him on BOTS2, even though Mike wasn't at his best (there was a guy's vet alliance - though Derrick did kind of mess up during the mission he was voted out). I think sometimes some of them may have found Mike's posturing/talking a little annoying, too, but I don't think anyone hated him.

Isn't that a really good school? I've heard about it before. I'm sorry but I never thought of Tina to be an exceptional scholar, lol. But i guess on these shows you can't really tell who's book smart. I mean would we ever really know that Veronica went to Berkeley? And Amaya went to UCLA I believe. Rachel from San Francisco went to ASU too I believe. I'm not sure though. Which Adam went to Stanford? Road Rules or Parisa? I remember Adam King was from Beverly Hills so for him to go to Stanford would make sense.

LOL a lot of them are a lot smarter than they look...Evan went to Cornell. And I think Devyn went to USF as well.
[QUOTE=RubenJay05;139815]wwwwaiiiittt... TINA went to wesleyan??!!? isnt that a really good schoo?! ive heard about it before. im sorry but i never thought of tina to be an exceptional scholar, lol. but i guess on these shows you cant really tell who's book smart. i mean would we ever really know that veronica went to berkley? and amaya went to ucla i believe. rachel from san fransisco went to ASU too i believe.. im not sure tho. which adam went to stanford? road rules or paris? i remember adam king was from beverly hills so for him to go to stanford would make sense.[/QUOTE] Adam from RW Paris went to Stanford. And my list doesn't even begin to sum up the cast members from the shows that have gone to college. I can't remember everything or didn't watch some of the seasons. The majority of the people who have been on RW or RR have gone to college. Some of them did not complete college, but typically college students are cast for the shows. Sometimes I think some seasons are discredited when compared to seasons like Brooklyn and Hollywood, in terms of goals and education. That's not to put those seasons down at all, though - it was nice to see a different focus for the show. Brooklyn and Hollywood were set up to focus more on the cast's career aspirations, with there being no required jobs and all. Plus, in some cases, BMP/MTV made sure to set up some of the cast and give them opportunities on those seasons (some situations, not all - some of the cast went out on their own and got their own connections). But there have been so many college students on the shows. It's just some of them get caught up in the after life of the shows (touring, Spring Break, challenges, etc) that they don't finish, or at least, they delay the rest of their education (some of them go back to school years later). Others: Yes - UC Berkeley Pawel - NYU? Pua - Hawaii Community College (Hilo) Nick (RR Xtreme) - University of Wisconsin
Shane (Campus Crawl) went to UNC as well.
Leah from Paris went to Maryland and I THINK Shauvon went to San Francisco State, or some school in the bay area. Julie (New Orleans) went to BYU.
Here's the ones I know, I don't know who actually graduated: Norman (New York) went to Yale Becky (New York) went to NYU Beth (Los Angeles) went to Ohio University Jon (LA) went to Belmont Lindsay (Seattle) went to Michigan Janet (Seattle) went to Northwestern Nathan (Seattle) and David (Seattle) went to VMI Rebecca (Seattle) went to Virginia Stephen (Seattle) went to UC Berkeley Miz went to Miami University (Ohio) Lori (B2NY) went to Boston College Dan (Miami) went to Rutgers Cynthia (Miami) went to San Jose State Ruthie (Hawaii) went to Rutgers Matt (New Orleans) went to Georgia Tech Zach (Key West) went to Lewis and Clark College Paula (Key West) went to Quinnipiac Svetlana (Key West) went to Temple Mallory (Paris) went to Iowa State Ace (Paris) went to Georgia Southern CT (Paris) went to the University of Massachusetts Alex (Denver) went to Arizona State Dunbar (Sydney) went to Ole Miss Isaac (Sydney) went to Arizona Shauvon (Sydney) went to CSU Sacramento Chet (Brooklyn) went to Utah CJ (Cancun) went to UMass

Are we sure Derrick's son's name is Derrick? Kenny said in one of the dialies "I wanna be awesome" and Derrick said the name is already taken in regards to his son.
[QUOTE=tjhallow;139830]Are we sure Derrick's son's name is Derrick? Kenny said in one of the dialies "I wanna be awesome" and Derrick said the name is already taken in regards to his son.[/QUOTE] Yes...
Oh, also: Jasmine (Cancun): Texas Southern Bronne (Cancun): Penn State
Any news of any planned Challenges after Fresh Meat 2? I say bring in game where we have teams of the strongest players but have them on opposite sides. Don't have 1 team stacked. I say bring Inferno type ****** vs. Good Guys Good Guy Male / Female- Alton Landon Wes (He turned into a good guy in the Ruins) Brad Mark MJ Nehemiah (Kenny Worst Nightmare) Evelyn Tori Diem Melinda Jodi Brittini Svetlana ****** Team Male / Female - CT Evan Kenny Derrick Johnny Abram Darrell Susie Rachel Veronica Coral Tina Katie Janelle Basically put a lot of Loud mouth girls in ****** team. Lets see if they can just trim the fat that easily. lol

Well there seems to be a new person who is going to challenge JEK and his name is..... Scott Herman. He said that he will be on the next challenge (after Fresh Meat 2) and is coming to prove that he is for real.
Evan went to Cornell? I guess it's true, a lot of them are smarter than they look. Does anyone remember where any of the Las Vegas crew went to school?
I think Steven didn't go to University as he left home at 16. Trishelle went to Southern Mississippi University the rest I don't know.
Malik - UC Berkeley Kyle - Princeton Tonya - think she mentioned something about finishing her nursing degree at UCLA (during BOTS2) Brad - Southern Illinois University, Lewis University Robin - I think she went to USF? Rachel (Campus Crawl) - University of Miami Theo (RR) - according to his website's bio: LSU, Loyola, Arizona, College of Charleston, Santa Monica College Derek (Viewer's Revenge) - University of North Florida, FSU, Kent State
Issac-University of Arizona Nick Brown- USF Dave Sky- lots of schools at time of filming SC State Zack Mann- Lewis and Clark That d-bag from Hollywood-Florida Dunbar-ole Miss Devin-Florida State Adam King-Stanford Tyler- Tufts
What happened to the music on the challenges? I'm watching the older challenges (BOTS, Gauntlet 1) and they constantly play music during the missions by bands or rappers. It makes the mission look a lot more fun than barely having any music at all like the challenges now. Is it because of copyright issues? Even when drama was occurring and you would hear all the interviews and stuff. They would include montages of the "villian" during the episode and play intense music and it would make the challenges really interesting. I think BMP produced its own music in the older challenges also because i noticed that they would use the same music over and over. Why don't they use that music in the challenges now? I feel like the challenges now are too quiet or something. When 2 people are talking its dead silent and makes it a little less entertaining to see.
When did Scott say this? I follow him on Twitter and didn't find anything that said that.
He said it on one of his youtube videos. It's the one were he does allot of squats and shows us that he is one of the best. Currently he is in talks right now to do the next season. As I asked if this was true for clarification. I also posted the link on the Scott Herman page if you can't find it on youtube.

I'm sure a lot of the people on the challenges, including Johnny, can do squats.
Did you see the video or know anything about Scott Herman. Well if you didn't see it he was squatting 225 which if you went to the gym you would know that is allot. He also did 41 reps without stopping which is no small feat. I think he in my opinion will be ready for a challenge when it comes time to do so.

But it's not like all the top players don't come on here without training. I'm sure Johnny does too. I believe he's a strong guy and I believe he's fit but we don't know if he is athletic. We've seen a fit Dunbar do horribly so we don't know exactly how Scott will do. Plus drop him in against Evan and Kenny who outweigh him, Kenny I'm not sure how much but Evan at least 40 lbs being Scott is only 170. It even looks like Johnny outweighs him.
