New Coach: New fight song?

[naginiF]

Intern suggests a hierarchical order of haves and have nots. No thank you.

I think the UTIP Comrades has the egalitarian flair we need to stand proudly as a Woke Temple of Learning.

Thought we were trying to highlight the easy road of the students - my bad. If we're going woke we should consider the UTIP 'Progressives', 'Accepters', or 'Damn Youths'. Mascots could be 'AOC', dude with long hair (man bun for rivalry games), and sweater vest in that order.

'Comrades' may mistake communism with socialism with democratic socialism, it's easy to conflate those so no worries. If we're trying to highlight the socialism aspect we should consider the UTIP 'White-Throated Dippers'. Which keeps us with a bird mascot and is the national bird of Norway (which honestly couldn't be any funnier for this)

Seriously, Dr. Powless is a remarkable figure in Marquette's history. He should take a place of significance in our story. For whatever reason, his story has not been told much less celebrated.

I had never heard of the guy before. Pretty damn impressive. Thanks for the link, keefe.

The UTIP Progressives has a lyrical ring to it. It rolls off the tongue with the sugary promise of unbridled entitlement combined with absolutely no demand for accountability or responsibility. Let's face it: Utopian Dreams don't come cheap and who better to foot the bill than the privileged Caucasian elites whose ill gotten gains were accumulated through the vulgar sledgehammer of capital. 

I do, however, love the image of an Acceptor mascot: Birkenstocks and ragg wool socks, hemp vest over a collarless linen shirt woven by Palestinian refugees who fled the savagery of Zionist aggression, braided pit hair, man (him/he/his) bun, a well-thumbed copy of Maya Angelou's collected works in his/him/he cross body fiber satchel crafted by Bolivian campesinos who are locked in a Herculean struggle against Latifundista tyranny, and an ever present six string for consecrating a vigil or protest with the healing chords of Kumbaya.

Dropping the well enjoyed back and forth schtick:
a) i've not read the whole Powless history but it looks awesome and I will as soon as the rest of the naginiF's complete their nightly ritual. thanks for sharing.
b) i'm willing to bank that the vast majority MU grads in the modern age did not pay their own way through school. Scholarships, parents, grandparents, etc. paid at least a portion. Pretending that isn't a form of entitlement is not being honest.
c) I assume the mocking of pronouns is just part of the banter that was established and that'w totally cool/in line. However note that some here use the mocking of pronouns in a defamatory manner
