The College (i.e., the undergrad part) was always kept separate in quite a number of ways from the rest of the University. I mean it was basically a top-tier research center with a tacked-on small liberal arts college. And yeah most of my U of C friends are still big ol' lefties.

Over the years and the various attempts at Star Wars stories that have happened, the thing I've ultimately decided is that for me Star Wars is at its best when it (a) leans into the dirty, grungy, scrappy vibe from the early films, and (b) pushes the Jedi/Skywalker stuff far into the background.

I've also occasionally wanted a "straight" blinker so I could indicate I *wasn't* making a turn in some more complicated traffic scenarios.

Don't count on it. Past history shows GOG typically loses originals after SEs come out as well. Witness the lack of original Monkey Island or Day of the Tentacle or Full Throttle, say.
