Alumni Pavilion Dedication

Hadn't seen this posted yet. We went to the Alumni Pavilion grand opening Saturday. There were about 150 people there I think. Anyway, the band sent a pep band over and played the fight song. It was amazing the spirit the crowd had. It was better than most other spirit events I've been to. I began thinking, I think my school has changed for good. The highlight for me was Dr. Rawlins. He spoke just for a few moments and ended with the Winston Churchill quote "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning"

I can't wait to buy my brick for the patio.

Agree, the new Alumni Pavilion is GREAT! The dedication was done extremely well and each speaker did a fine job. I loved the crowd and the excitement around the Pavilion's opening. Once inside you could see how great the place will be as a "meet and greet" before games and for other events throughout the year. I thought the food and drink was both good and reasonably priced and the TV's were just perfect.

I heard some great comments and saw a couple of folks actually join the Alumni Association after seeing the Pavilion in person.

Thanks to Derrick and all he Alumni Association staff and to all the donors who helped to make this happen.

SEE YOU AT THE PAVILION ON SAT. 24t before the Mean Green take on Indiana!
