Band is a no show

I was sad to see that our band was forced to remain in Lincoln. It seems since they take so many freloading big shots there was no money for airfare just a dangerous long winter bus ride. This affirms NU is all about the money and not the students. Just like moving the UNL students to the worst seats in the stadium and then cutting the number and raising the prices! :dunno <_< :hmmph :o :o

 
I have read that there are some other schools making the same decision...budget constraints. The Gophers' band is going, but the AD is unable.....a little backwards i guess.

Would you have rather them gone anyway and been involved in an accident?

Yeah, good call. You should run the program.

My feeling is the band is a priority not Regents and politicans. The band should have flown! The Bowls pay for these expenses but the adminstrators put the band on a bus and put a bunch of freeloaders and the freeloader's entourage on a jet and get em a limo and hotel and meals and hotel first class all the way.

We are the fourth most valuable program but rather selfhish about sharing with the students and student life experiences
