I have always thought it would be smart for UNT to be able to showcase their victory by lighting a building or sky next to I-35E and also visible from I-35W

Any ideas??? Think of this as a green version @ apogee

I was just talking about this the other day! First of all, I've always loved that the admin tower is lighted Green. But if you've seen it lately, it's very faint. They really need to change out the fixtures to some new L.E.D. technology and it'll be much brighter.

Also, because the tower is in the center of campus, the only people that see it, are kids on campus. And even so, the admin tower isn't THAT tall of a structure. If we think it's going the further help UNT to get the City of Denton more involved, the lighting the stadium would be a great way to show EVERYONE when there's a UNT Victory. Have the entire stadium lighted in Green L.E.D. lights. Could also accent light the windmills with green light.

I really like this, and it seems well within the realm of possibilities. I wouldn't want to diminish or erase the tradition of lighting the tower as well, but the idea to have a statement visible to the public at the stadium by a major highway would be far more resounding among those who aren't in the middle of campus after dark.

I think a big green neon or new led light of the ouline of our eagle logo on the back of the wingzone. It would be such good

branding from the highway.

Green spotlights at the corners of the roof of the new Student Union?

No, that is too close to theAdmin tower. Lighting Apogee is the best way to go. In regards to the wingzone, How about making the whole section glow green on the outside. Line the underside with some green LED lights. That would definitely get some attention.

Great idea. Also lighting up the pedestrian bridge would maximize our victory celebration to all the traffic going up and down I-35.

Light up the bridge! Light up the bridge! Light up the bridge!

SGA already attempted to make this happen, only to be denied because the bridge is not owned by UNT but is owned by TXDOT. That is what i've been told by the SGA VP.

I like this idea. Ya know those big search lights used to attract attention to a grand opening . I wonder if there is a green lens that could be put over the light to make it a green search light ? In the old days,(ie Plumm) those searchlights were huge carried on an 18 wheel truck. I've seen them lately and they fit in the back of a pick up truck.

Good idea and Apogee is the perfect place to show off our "Green light to greatness."

Beat Texas

GO MEAN GREEN

Yes! This is what I was trying to suggest to put atop the new student union.

The roof of the Super Pit has a lot of real estate, and is visible from 35E, 35W, and 35 north of the split

Buy the bridge from DOT. Everything has a price. Then make it green. Top of the Pit isn't a bad idea, but I think big green strobe lights in the sky might be overkill. But if they can do it, do it.

"Keep watching the skies, keep watching the skies". Yes, light up the bridge.
