It's amazing the stuff you can learn when you have some time by yourself on the internet. Here's an example for you. A simple search of Colorado Mesa University's Wikipedia page reveals a number of famous alumni. Oh, and Ricky Schroder. I will mercifully keep the Silver Spoons references to a minimum.
Here's a copy and paste from Wikipedia:
