Finally, the bell

HEY WAIT JUST ONE FUCKING MINUTE

Quote :

"The plan is to mount the bell on wheels so it can be rolled out for events such as homecoming and big games. It will be a focal point for school spirit and act as a fund-raising tool to encourage the next few senior classes to raise money for more bells, Robbins said. The students hope to keep it in a prominent location in the library. Once there are six bells, they can be mounted in the tower and tintinnabulated properly. The rest can be added later, and with relative ease because they're significantly smaller and less expensive."

looks like they actually had a sr class pres who knew something

5/22/2010 7:23:58 PM

Great! So we're gonna have a bell on wheels like every other damn school with a bell on wheels.
[/rawr rawr rawr]

I'm going to go ahead and put up the money for 5 more bells so it never happens and all 6 can be tintinnabulated.

Good job, I have no clue what the senior gift of 2007 was. At least this will probably spark more interest in underclass giving.

Nice Matt, now just get OT a house.

Great. I can foresee one of these in the future...

What was the class gift for '09?

5/22/2010 9:57:02 PM

hey dawg, i heard you like bells...so on and so forth.

5/22/2010 10:03:28 PM

How many bells does the belltower need? What is tintinnabulation? WHY ISN'T IT THE BELLSTOWER?

Clearly I don't know shit about belltower functioning, since I thought all you needed was a big ass bell.

5/22/2010 10:08:44 PM

I dunno either. I thought all you needed was a big ass bell and a hunchback.

Silly iPhone.

The university should create a bell registry with all the 54 bells they need and have people purchase the needed one. If the tiny ones are reasonable, I would jump on board and get one if my name was to say get inscribed on it. [/self gratification]

5/22/2010 10:35:27 PM

Is stealing a Bell an option? I mean other schools have them AND they are on wheels! Thats my vote. And I would chip in for a fundraiser if we had to get bells "legally."

5/22/2010 11:55:11 PM

ArcBoyeee you better ride the Uni's ass to actually get the other bells, or to start a fundraiser or something, otherwise they're going to wave the flag of victory at one bell and wait until they get annoyed into action again in the future.

5/23/2010 12:01:45 AM

^^^ That's a really good idea.

5/23/2010 12:11:11 AM

I wish the University would raise some money for this. This and the statue of Yow (and the assumed statues of Case/Sloan/V) that they are planned to go beside Reynolds should all be funded through the University. Seems like a fundraising effort would be a lot easier and would go a lot faster.
