If this is really part of a roll-out on a major initiative, someone's PR acumen should be scrutinized.

"Awareness programs" seldom involve publicity stunts using people who are completely unaware, do they??

Someone more creative needs to work on an anagram for this. All I have for "If not us then who" is...

Who in fo the nuts?

Is it too late to call this off? Consider the 100k you blew on the cards a sunk cost and make a good decision.

Exactly. A bunch of people who couldn't give a **** about football calling shots like this for football games.


Reminds me of the sorority girls visiting Corps dorms on Sunday nights to get outfits to help them with their fundraisers

I don't trust even the A&M Foundation to identify - much less solve - real world problems.

Will 4 billion pay for a wall along the southern border? If yes then I'll hold up the damn sign.

For those interested, here's the video from the press conference announcing the campaign.

Still totally unclear what the fundraising is for. A link in the beginning of the thread would have been helpful. I've exhausted the amount of time I'm willing to commit to finding an answer with nothing to report other than this nugget -

"The multi-year campaignthemed "Lead By Example" is aimed at providing adequate resources to help solve a variety of "real world" problems, Texas A&M President Michael K. Young said in making the announcement"

Not at all sure what the hell that means. Near as I can tell its a fundraiser to pay for scholarships and salaries for the high-achieving students and professors who will then solve said "real world" problems.

I'll pass. I mean seriously, have the courtesy to take the time to pitch and sell the idea. Being part of "the biggest card stunt EVAR" didn't quite do it for me.

We're not that interested. This is a football game, not your damned podium.

I helped set up the stunt. It's kicking off a fundraising campaign for the university. It says "If not us, then who?" and "Lead by example" with a couple of aTm logos thrown in on the sides.
I nailed it in the other thread... pretty easy guess though

I think liberals and liberal policies are a real wold problem. Will any of the money be spent on defeating them?

GREAT ROSE BOWL HOAX In the 1961 Rose Bowl (Washington V Minnesota) a group of mischievous students from Cal Tech arranged for a "re-arranging" of the cards during a planned Card Stunt. The message was changed to read "CAL TECH". The story of how the switch was done is fascinating. I know Lyn Hardy who led the prank. The story is here:

Can someone explain what this is about?

From what I've read on this thread, it sounds out-of-context for a football game.
