But for reals, I'd say for the most part even though its already been 10 years since we changed mascots, that's one negative aspect I'd say about retiring the Indians moniker was it pretty much wiped away all the traditions the university use to have. Probably at this point our "Order of the Pack" (formerly Order of the Tribe) is about the strongest tradition we still have at Astate (nothing unique, just a pep rally with the student body before the first home game of the season) but it's still going strong.

Order of the Pack is strong because its a required event for Greek Organizations.
I've never seen the point of it though. 95 percent of our students already know all of the chants etc long before they show up for that thing. The entire thing now is basically a battle between the greeks for all the awards.
Still a great idea.
