Sorry bud. I can't just not answer. Want me to PM you the next time and leave it for someone else to guess?

Well, I'm gonna go ahead and guess, even though I know neither one of these is correct.

The obvious alma mater for Kermit the Frog would be the University of Maryland in College Park.

And the obvious alma mater for Kermit the computer protocol would be Columbia University in NYC.

Those are my guesses, so give us another clue...I'm stumped.

I was referring to Mr. The Frog, though Kermit the protocol was good thinking, too. Most people wouldn't remember it. However, Jim Henson graduated from University of Maryland, not Kermit. Kermit graduated from a small liberal arts school and went on to start his stage career.

According to Wiki
"Kermit was awarded an honorary doctorate of Amphibious Letters on May 19, 1996 at Southampton College, where he also gave a commencement speech. [1]"

But looking at this Google Map link It certainly doesn't appear to match your picture.

But I am going to throw out "Southampton College" as my guess anyway to keep the game rolling along.

Hehe. That was honorary. I meant his "real" degree (at least it's as real as he is).

I just did a little web searching on my own based on clues that I gave, and the answer isn't too hard to find if you look in the right places. (Just wanted to let you know that I made sure it wasn't an impossible task.)

Missed this post... You really want me to give it away that fast?

In one of the feature-length theatre-shown muppet motion picture events, Kermit (along with many of his companions) graduated from a fictional college. Figure out which real college that segment was filmed at. The title of the pic contains a clue, too.

You got it. Smash pushed me too hard. I tried to say no. It was like name that place date rape.

I went to Vassar for two years before it became too expensive. If you saw a picture with the Danhurst College sign in front of it while looking, you saw where I ate my meals most days.

The game has morphed into: location guessed, new clue. Angelbabe made me do that on my Cedar Point puzzle. I didn't want to either.

Somehow it sounds a hell of a lot better to be clue raped by AngelBaby than by me tho...

The Louvre, though I've no idea what your clue means. At least now I can tell all those people at work that taking two years of French instead of Spanish has finally paid off. I was going to throw The Hermitage out there next, but the satellite map of it totally blows. Regardless, here's one that won't last past the afternoon:

It isn't a tourist destination, but whenever I think of it, I think of the beach; particularly the sand.
