Wanted:
Your ideas for celebrations honoring UNT athletic accomplishments
A
recent call on the UNT Answer Line has remained on my mind since I first
heard it.
The caller expressed a deep concern that there were no on-campus events to bring members of the university family together to support the football team during our first postseason bowl appearance in 42 years.
Now, rather than continuing to wrestle with the subject alone, I want to use this column to invite some UNT community discussion about what to do when the opportunity comes again. And it will come again – UNT student athletes will win other Sun Belt Conference championships and we will return to the New Orleans Bowl.
UNT to present

"Exploring Multicultural Relations," will present films from
12 different nations on Tuesdays from Jan. 29 to April 23, except for
March 19, when UNT is closed for spring break.
