Well, in spite of it all....there is, Santa, always a sliver lining somewhere...even the Wall Street Journal has taken note of UNT. In today's edition of the Wall Street Journal, 12/10/12 on page B8 in bold type is the number 2,872.
The text reads: "The attendance at Saturday's Jackson State - North Texas men's basketball game in Denton, Texas. That same day, the UCLA - Texas game at Houston's Reliant Stadium drew 2,797.
Found this both interesting and positive that UNT was mentioned in the Wall Street Journal.
