AFAIK, Phyllis is still alive. I used to work for her, she's GREAT people. But you don't name buildings after people until they're dead

And you don't name pep rallies after mis-named buildings

Naming FAIL

Frank Morsani would like to talk to you.

Apples and kumquats

He bought and paid for the plaque

You must be new to higher ed. Donate enough money and they'll name whatever the hell you want them to after you, alive or dead. True at pretty much any college or university in America.

Huh?

 

That was my point. Phyllis was an employee, not a donor.

 

Don't get me wrong. I worked for her, and loved her dearly. My beef is the concept of honoring people by naming buidlings after them while still alive. Looks like I;m in a very small minority here. I'm used to that, LOL

New Traditions are impossible.

 

Traditions are built over TIME. 

 

Until USF has a oncampus stadium we won't have any real pre-game traditions

Reminds me of the benevolent Tornton Mellon and the 'really big check'...

I was there, about half an hour. Simple formula, SG Prez and Vice Prez spoke, Harlan, Taggart and a couple players. Cheerleaders, Sun Dolls, HOT, other teams were there walking around promoting their games (I saw Women's Soccer, Men's Soccer and Volleyball were out of town). 

 

Nothing that I would call news, but a fun little event to get students interested.

It was alright.  Nothing too terribly special.  Although this was one of the few times while I have been here that I saw the athletes interacting with students.  So it was refreshing.

A lot of smart camera angles. Looks like maybe a hundred or so students showed up. Over/under (to the people who went)?

... Want to get students to games... Get rid of the keg ban that they put in place while I was a student.
