School spirit is what you make of it, and it returns what you put into it. I ran flag for something like 3 years, wear green on Fridays where I work, and even have a "North Texas" morale patch that goes to the field with me. On the same note, when I was in high school, I only attended the football games I presented US/TX colors for and that was it. I didn't care for school spirit back then, but it's the other way around with my college experience. Congrats on your coming degree, BTW. Another first that our school has is the first EADP program. I'm not in it, but I know two folks who are and the program seems to be sharp. "All other areas" huh? At Creative Summit and the Dallas Society of Visual Communications, UNT has consistently been among the top places, with the only real competition being from Texas State. The Comm Design program is so strong that some agencies consider the program to be worth a few years of real world experience. Can't beat that. The art division also recently added the New Media program, this specializes in art built for software, interactive experiences, etc, for things like video games, installation art, and television and film. Why? Because software companies realize the value of smart design, and because there are video game companies opening doors for artists in Carollton and Addison. UNT also happens to have on its staff, one of the forefront researchers in Animal Assisted Therapy. I'm sure we can all pitch in on this in some way or another. I mean, except you, Dumpsalot. Sometimes, I wonder why you're even on this board. I mean, when the team doesn't do well, or when the admin or whomever doesn't meet expectations, that's fine to hear and probably understandable. It's easy to see when the football program or golf falls on its face. It's a lot harder to say that for an entire college.
