Several students have already started using it. As I speak, 5 of the people on my AIM buddy list have it in their away message and several others have it as their facebook status.
I think it's a perfect rallying cry.

I've seen this saying all over the place, but I'm trying to figure out where it came from. Can someone explain? Thanks.

Huskie fight song.
Huskies, come on you Huskies
and make a score or two
Huskies, you're Northern Huskies
the team to pull us through
Forward, together forward
there's victory in view
Come on you Huskies, Fight on you
Huskies and win for N.I.U.
Lyrics by Francis Stroup
Music by A. Neil Annas

Yep, our final design was approved by NIU today. I didn't make the design, another NIU student did and he has been a huge asset. He's a talented individual.

If that doesnt occsionally muster strength & evoke a tear from one's eye, no other NIU symbolism could.

wouldn't it be great if the Victory Bell was still in the turnaround. It would be the perfect rallying place for the campus to rally around. The bell could be rung for each of the victims on Feb 14th in the center of campus showing that we will overcome this. Alas, the bell is stuck languishing on the fringe.

When done at the Convo for the vigil I say everyone rings the bell 5 times-you know the Its a Wonderful life and every time a bell rings someone is going to heaven?
