Question about Alex's high school in Columbus. - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Last night on I saw the episode "The Graduate" where Alex's girlfriend wins valedictorian over him.

The banner behind the podium said "Warren G. Harding High School" on it.

Well, I went to Warren G Harding HS in NE Ohio about 2 hours from Columbus where the show was to have taken place. It's the only HS with that name other than Marion Harding HS where Harding the president was born.

My question is this: Was this done for any reason in particular? I mean, was a writer on the show from my Warren G Harding HS or something of that nature? Any connection that anyone knows of?

I see one guy on here answering all the questions....he's in charge of another Family Ties website or had something to do with the show. I was wondering if you could answer this one. Thanks.

Yes. There is only one Warren Harding high school in the state of Ohio...other than Marion Harding like I said above.

My name SVF stands for Steel Valley Football.

Skippy: Yeah
Alex: I drive a car now.
