Pride: What is a Bonnie?

          Coming in as a freshman to St. Bonaventure, I received a t-shirt with “What is a Bonnie?” written across the back. For weeks before starting my first year at college, I wore that shirt to let others know where I was going to school.
          I wasn't wearing it because I was proud of SBU or because I wanted people to be jealous of where I was going. I just wanted people to know where the next part of my journey would be taking me.
          I can't even begin to count how many people asked me throughout those few weeks what a Bonnie was.
          Every time someone asked, I never had an answer.
          Well, today, after the men's basketball team completed their phenemonal basketball season, I do.
