History
Template:Main During the downfall of The Big Blue alliance, of which Eve University (E-UNI) was a member, they were approached by several 0.0 alliances with offers providing varying levels of access to their space. One of the most enticing offers came from the Interstellar Starbase Syndicate. They had acquired a new Gallente outpost in the EC-P8R system, and needed someone to operate and manage it. Wanting to maintain their complete and total neutrality, E-UNI refused, at which time Manas and 25 other E-UNI members split off, accepting the ISS deal and moving out to EC-P8R under the new name "The Graduates". Since that time, TGRAD has gone on to be in such alliances as Ivy League, The Brutally Clever Empire, Morsus Mihi and now Razor Alliance
