You're dumb
Clutching pearls about crime in MKE is definitely a Wojo mentality. We need more of a Shaka mindset on the scoop.
We have people here who think Marquette should have moved up to Meqon a la Concordia. So I don't think they really are "all in" on the urban, cracked sidewalks history of the University
To opine on this matter, MU would be trivin' right now had they moved to the campus Concordia now has. When Concordia was essentially on 33rd and State St., it was dyin' on the vine. At present it has not only added enrollment, but added programs as well (i.e. PA, Pharmacy).For the record, urban campuses had their run 15 years ago. Not so popular now unless you're a highly selective university like UChicago, UPenn, Yale, etc., hey?
This thread is incredible. Hits on almost all the best points.The students suck.The marketing department sucks.The concessions suck.The DJ sucks.Milwaukee is scary.
The students don't suckThe marketing department does suckThe concessions don't suckThe DJ absolutely, positively sucksMilwaukee is scary
I thought we kinda prided ourselves on being an urban campus. Al thrived in an environment with some rough edges. Some of the best dudes ever to put on our jerseys came from places with those rough edges. Cracked Sidewalks, no?I don't want to get pulled into a gigantic message board slap fight about the reality of crime, but by and large it has been falling nationwide since the late 70s/early 80s (sometimes markedly so). Without Remorse, the Dirty Harry movies, all of that cultural creation was in conversation with the urban decay that was probably the lived reality of the time on campus for many of the people complaining the loudest about the city now.
Anybody else really confused by a post like this regarding the students coming from this guy?
To your point, social media posts have almost negligible costs. They could be flooding their pages reminding people of the upcoming games and what is at stake, etc. It doesn't even have to be a promotion, just awareness.
looks like an ad hominem to me, ey fellas? what's going on...little man syndrome?
LOL, people don't want the "rough edges" of the broken glass when their car windows are smashed.
Maybe nows the time to talk about the piss poor public transit options in Milwaukee relative to cities its size. I was able to take the L to the wintrust on Saturday, why can't someone do that from Tosa or West Allis or Bayview? MKE leaned wayyy too hard into car infrastructure and now people are mad about what happens. All that said the concessions suck at Fiserv.
No. He's dumb. And brilliant in comparison to you.
Dude, ewe should bea sew dum. Musta graduated wit Latin Honors...Muchum Cum Lousy, aina?
