The Claremont Theorem

I have a theory I'm calling the Claremont Theorem:

In a given group:
-If the total number of Claremont alumni, x, is two (2) or greater...
-and the total group size exceeds x by at least one...
-Then all Claremont alumni in said group will not stop talking about how awesome Claremont was.

Tune in next week for my work in progress, the Non-Claremont-Alumni-Blunt-Object Theorem.

I reckon the Claremont Theorem could be applied to a lot of the "good old boy" schools like Yale and Harvard. Maybe not the numbers part, but the part where they can't shut up about how awesome their school was. :-P

I'm glad you're alive! I look forward to the next theorem.

A sound theorem indeed, but your first condition puzzles me. Why, exactly must 'x' be 2 or greater?

Happy Birthday, Greg!

Wouldn't the mere expression of the Claremont Theorem, be a manifestation of the effects of the Claremont Theorem? It is, after all, ascribing to Claremont a feature that is apparently unique and, therefore, awesome.
