What's Your Favorite Flashdrive? UIUC, WUSTL, Mich, etc...

Be forewarned, this thread is ridiculously dorky and somewhat pathetic...

I've been admitted to 3 flashdrive schools (UIUC, WUSTL, and Michigan). I heard GW sent a nice drive last year, but haven't gotten anything yet. Duke was sending flashdrives last year as well, but I'm on the waitlist there so may never have the pleasure of seeing a live one in person. What other schools, T-anything, have sent you a flashdrive? How does it compare?

Illinois is the best of the three I've received so far in terms of size (4GB) and it's all shiny. However, the videos are a little weird and "Champaign-Urbana" has the potential to give you a seizure. Wash U and Michigan are only 1GB, but I like Wash U's design and it has a lot of useful info on it other than the videos. Michigan only has the one video (boo), but it's by far the best video of all three schools. Also Michigan is the only T10 I've been accepted to :oops:, so it holds a special place in my heart.

What do you think? Have you gotten a cool one from a different school?

Not to completely humiliate your flash drives (as I have yet to get any such law school gimme), but I got into the JD/MBA program at Wake Forest, and the business school sent me an 8gb iPod touch. Booyah!

Dammmmmnnn. Business schools give you the best swag.

At least I didn't decide to apply to an anthropology program, they'd probably send a stick with the name of the school etched on it.

Maybe GW is cutting back this year. I wouldn't take it as as an evaluation of how they feel about us as applicants.

/although that's what it is :(

The Illinois one is really a significantly nicer and larger sized flash drive. Since I'm not going to any of these schools, kinda nice just to have the flash drive, so 4gb takes the cake...

Whaaat, I should have applied to that too.

I didn't even get a packet from WUSTL, everything has been through email. No flash drive in my GW packet.
