UNA's Pursuit of Excellence? Destiny by Choice?


Leo usually looks, well, regal. Even friendly and content. So why does this emblem for Human Environmental Sciences look mad at the world, even rabid? We'll guess he's like most students and not pleased with the university's move to Division I.

According to a full page ad in the Courier Journal, it's the university's destiny...a destiny by choice...it just doesn't say who's choice. It does say it's part of the university's pursuit of excellence in all areas. In fact, if one who had never visited the campus were to read this glowing blurb, he or she would infer the campus cobblestones were made of platinum, or at least gold.

In fact, nothing could be farther from the truth. Of course, if you too feel this is UNA's destiny, you're invited to shell out a Grover Cleveland every year in order to make it happen. We bet those UNA operators are barely able to keep up with the incoming calls...
