"Bury the Burrow in Red" T-Shirts???????

They passed out shirts at the womens game tonight but refused to give any to the band. I'm not happy! I'm a paying student too, and we are pretty much the only ones who ever attend the womens games anyway.  :-[

That's not cool. Maybe they have a stash for you that's separate from the regular give-a-ways?

Do you guys receive any scholarship monies?  If so, that is the reason…if not, FOUL.

I believe they do… or at least a stipend.

They are considered "athletes" then aren't they….?

Technically no, but from a "PC" perspective, yes…unfortunately…

We don't get any money for pep-band. Marching band yes, but even then we pay for both Marching Band and Pep-Band because they are classes.

They gave the cheerleaders shirts. No money for Pep Band and yes we get money for Marching Band but its an optional credit course so if you take it for 3 credits you are still paying out of pocket. I'm just bummed.  :-\ And no we are not part of athletics.

Y'all should get shirts. Bottom line.

dmarkey: the comment about the band being part of athletics …  most of us know that the band isn't under the governance of the athletics department. But I was wondering, and Florida Owl answered it, that if y'all receive some kind of monetary benefit (stipend, scholarship or otherwise) for performing at athletic events on a consistent basis, whether or not you would be considered an "athlete."

I am still holding on to hope that athletics has a separate stash for y'all!

Band Members,

Any chance you could get there early, pick up the shirts, leave and then get dressed for pep band duty?

Its a way to get the shirts at least, and I DO think that ya'll shouldnt have to do that.

But do whatever it takes.

;D

I have come here to chew bubble gum and kick @$$ and I'm out of bubble gum.
