Re: Kirk Dillard named to Board of Trustees!

Amen to that!  Not concerned about what party Dillard belongs, I just know he is a Leatherneck who cares alot about WIU!  jc   And if bold and progressive is what the BOT professes, and it must to get us out of the tailspin Western is in, that very BOT needs to recognize that the current President ...

Re: Kirk Dillard named to Board of Trustees!

Would like you to listen to the BOT meeting which took place today.  Start around 1:48:00 and listen all the way to the break.  The BOT is really asking some important questions and the statement from Kirk Dillard just before the break gives you an idea of why Kirk was placed on the BOT when he was...

Re: Field Turf

I'm pretty sure we can still use the true Marines logo (Eagle, Globe, Anchor) and Leatherneck name, but not the bastardization our marketing folks did with the Marines logo. That was DUMB. They protected the WIU stuff against even the little guys use and then did something so STUPID.

Re: Field Turf

Please don't use the block W. No one associates it with WIU. We need WIU, Western Illinois or Rocky's head.    Absoltuley agreed. We are Western, WIU, etc, but not "for the W." Athletics is associated with the Rocky head. That is wat we should be celebrating!   Same. I’ve always loved the...

Re: Last year in MVFC

Tennessee tech I would guess is a plane and if they they with the big south I’m guessing some of those will be plane rides.   I read an article on the move and it said all the trips will be bus rides   I wonder if that means they'll head down a day early for those. Probably don't want to do a bit o...

Re: Leaving the conference

I'm not against adding sports but with our budget situation seems odd that we would add sports, granted they are all on the women's side. I guess some of that money we are saving on travel will go here.   Bubb did say that it was to get us into compliance with Title IX, so it was probably either ad...

Re: OVC

FYI, officially lower case "e" for Edwardsville, SIUe   They do have the lower case "e" in a sculpture on campus and it's in some logos. I wonder if they used to go by SIUe and then switched it to SIUE.   I believe that is correct. They used to use "SIUe" but no longer...
