I went to a college over the weekend to check it out cause it was a open house. Because I registered over the computer to show up, I got a free t-shirt. On it, it says, "duo promeritum caput". I can't figure out what it says. Does any one know?

Wasn't all that hard to figure out. Took all of about 3 minutes doing a Yahoo search.

duo promeritum caput

duo : two
promeritum : desserts, merit, credit.promissio : a promise.
caput : capitis : head /top, summit /chief.

Now figure it out

I bet you that the first person who calls in and asks what it means gets a scholarship.

mmmmm.... I translate "duo promeritum caput" to... "Two heads are better (...than one)".
