Ed. note -- This is absolutely brilliant. Front page'd con gusto.
A few weeks ago, someone stated that schools that have the same mascot should play each other. Well, it is next to impossible to keep a librarian from thinking about classifications. So here is my attempt at creating new and uneven divisions for all schools.
The reasons for some of the division breakdowns are the following:
Because trees are a crop, Ohio State and Western Kentucky are included in the Agriculture/Ranching Division
For Akron the choice was between the mascot and a rubber shoe?!? The choice was made to use the mascot.
The Chromo Division includes the subdivision with the same name and the Storm/Water Subdivision because the way the sky changes color before a storm. Since storms are also supernatural it seemed like a good place for that subdivision.
Remember this is not realistic and is just for fun. So, criticize away humble minions of EDSBS!
For my next classifications I will use both DDC and LC!
