I interviewed with one of our biggest rivals and they seriously brought it up at least 10 times throughout those two days. It didn't work out.
I married an alum of the rival. My allegiance had been declared before I even started the program. I took crap for it for 3 years. What was another 10 minutes? :-)

I attended my DH's dissertation defense, and I'm glad I was able to. Since we live overseas and were staying in a hotel, I could not bake anything, otherwise I probably would have!
DH had purchased a nice bottle of scotch and that is what we celebrated with after the dissertation was over. It was an open forum - my mom really wanted to come, so we let her, and some of DH's friends and fellow grad students attended.
