daily dribble

My sister just called from the GMU Bookstore where she's buying me a Final Four t-shirt. From the background noise, it sounded like a real (March) madhouse there. The Mason email servers are also bursting with school spirit:

Subject: Final Four Rally at the Johnson Center
Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006
From: Office of the President

Join Coach Larranaga, students, faculty and staff tomorrow, Wednesday, March 29 at 11:30 a.m. for a Final Four Rally in the JC Food Court. Watch Mason beat UConn on the big screen, enjoy Final Four cake and cheer on the Patriots!

The following email from the Student Program Board is making the rounds among us GMU supporters:

Be on Good Morning America this Friday, March 31! If there was ever a time Mason needed you it is now...

Good Morning America wants to do a piece from our campus on Friday morning!! I need students to be here to talk to them and show off our awesome spirit!

What does this mean? Be at the JC food court at 7:00am, March 31!! Please, please, please, pass this on to your committees and anyone else you know. It's the chance to be on national TV, talk on TV, and scream your spirited head off!
