Hopefully they tell them to pound sand like Texas did their students and faculty when they tried to ban The Eyes of Texas


Texas created a second band so that those who don’t want to play it can join that one

That’s an odd mix of classes, and nowhere near freshman level. What where you majoring in at the time, if you don’t mind me asking?

Before Shoals drops in to explain himself, if he went to Muscle Shoals High School, he probably graduated high school as a college junior.

Wonder where The Lollipop Guild stands on the issue?


On the short agenda, mayhaps?

This just causes hate. People who aren't racist at all get mad over this crap.

All joking aside, Dixie was made up of 100 percent Democrats. They hung Republicans in in the 1860s....

Makes it easy to let the South go knowing the Confederacy was the Antifa of the day.

Seems like we're stalling on that one.

quote:

A university spokesperson told KXAN the new university band is on hold until a new director for the Butler School of Music is hired. The spokesperson said, “we hope to have a new director for the Butler School of Music in place for next fall.”

MONTGOMERY, ALA. - The state slogan "Heart of Dixie," a source of pride to some and embarrassment to others, is disappearing from more Alabama license plates every year.

One-third of the groups that promote distinctive and collegiate license plates now choose to leave the slogan off their tags.

This was from Dec. 2004, US News & World article.

Chemical Engineering. Took the first year at Northwest CC. Much cheaper to knock out the basics there.

A good adviser would probably have told me that class load was too much. Considering how poorly I took advice at that age I doubt I’d have listened.

fact Ole Miss has not played From Dixie with Love for years is an absolute travesty.


The last time I was in the Grove circa 2003 the band played it in the afternoon was one of the best things I ever saw

Should just change it to from Mississippi with Love... It would work and the crowd can sing it how they want.
