A “how-about-some-spirit-for-your-own-school?” dart to all the JMU students who sport their Virginia Tech apparel around campus.
From a freshman who didn’t come to JMU to see maroon and orange, and thinks you should remember where your tuition check goes.

A “thanks-for-spreading-your-love-for-JMU-on-Interstate-81” pat to the four guys that held up an “if you love us, honk” sign and waved obnoxiously as they drove by our car.
From two blown-away JMU girls who couldn’t resist honking and thanks you for adding a special touch to their drive back to JMU.

From a frequent customer of Festival who will think twice before purchasing her beloved grapes.

A “thanks-for-saving-water” pat to the girls in D-Hall who ate their lunch directly off the trays instead of using plates despite the strange looks from fellow students.
From a Dining Services employee who knows the trays are just as clean as the plates and is thankful you care about the environment.

A “thanks-for-the-maze,-now-how-about-a-‘connect-the-dots’?” pat to The Breeze’s art director for making a maze in the Feb. 14 issue.
From a senior mouse who is just looking for some tasty cheese.

A “there-are-hungry-children-in-town” dart to the SGA and Dining Services for sponsoring a grilled-cheese-eating contest that would supposedly benefit the JMU community.
From a sick-to-their-stomach student who can’t understand why you call yourselves leaders, and hopes that you will all open your eyes to the real world someday.
