We don't have it in the budget to send the band because the conference sends the bands to any affiliated bowl game not located in Hawaii on their own dime. I have posted this before

Similar to how we were able to get a band to West Lafayette for the women's NCAA tournament game against Notre Dame a few years ago because NCAA pays for the band to go.

And I'm setting the record straight before some stupid faculty member comes on here and says that the school shouldn't spend money on sending the band to Alabama when it could use that money to upgrade spanish classrooms

Really a difficult tome for the bowl game for students. Rush is getting underway and many students will be preparing for Rush. I would think the band has more latitude but could be wrong. I sure hope the band, cheerleaders, dance squad and all the horseys make it.

You know Pitt will turn out all its mascots including some fake panther (probably based on a Florida species).

The band is going. I was asked to replace a student who can't make it.
Leader of the Band-itos.

The Band, Peruna, Cheer and Spirit and Liberty and Justice. That's all good. We are going into a BCS conference. Let's act like we belong.

The Spanish department deserves better classrooms. Top 25 in everything, including languages.

Let's raise money for virtual Spanish classrooms.

Always a very simple retort: tell your god dam* department head to get off their lazy as* and solicit some donations. SMU doesn't suck at the [deleted] of state funding.

That was always one of the most enjoyable things about hiring Jones. The lead in was "AD Orsini solicited 2 million per year from 20 boosters by selling them on Jones." That's right. Get some, Steve.
