Where do you live? I live in Dallas, Texas; originally from Waxahachie, Tx What Year Did I Attend UNT: I did not attend UNT; rather I attended UTA; But my husband and I made the decision for him to be a full time student and get his Masters in Business at UNT. We were very active on campus with students and professors alike. We followed UNT Sports because although my husband played college ball for UTA, they dropped football which was a major disappointment to all the students expecially, the ex-lettermen.Can you just imagine what it was like? So we "followed" UNT Sports starting in 1963. A number of years later our son received his Marketing Degree from UNT. He fell in love with the school and has been very active in support as we were. Also, Many of my Zeta Tau Alpha Sisters reside on the UNT campus each year. My favorite UNT memory: A lot of my friends from Waxahachie graduated from UNT and I loved being invited to the games with them. It was such a happy place to be. The fans had such a great time at the games. It was real there. I think it still is. The fans support the team no matter what! And just look at what has been accomplished; truth be told. My favorite memory is a flashback of just seeing our family attend the games through the years; There was something really wonderful about sticking it out for a team/school no matter what the weather. Winning was always fun but, being a fan and helping grow a team is highly rewarding.Especially if you are making friendships with people who feel the same way about staying with a school to watch it grow.

UNT will open a new $78 million stadium next fall. What a great north Texas university it is turning out to be. The Mean Green opens spring practice March 23rd. New Coach; New Stadium! Check it out in the DMN article.
