Tech XX is Missing?

[rockdog]

American Bulldog works too. No way in hell that an English Bulldog was even in Louisiana outside of MAYBE New Orleans in the late 1800s.

I hate talking about it this soon, but I could just see it as a new beginning. I know it was mentioned (I think) when we got our new, unique Bulldog logo. It is still a bulldog, and I think it could be a good thing.

It's still early though. It's a shame that we have to talk about this so soon considering Tech XX was still so young.

I haven't posted on this thread because I ... just couldn't. I really don't know what to say about this. This hurts double since I truly feel that all animals should be treated well and the fact that it is our dog makes it worse. I just can't get it out of my mind how the death occurred. I'm always very careful with my dogs in the heat and really get mad when I see other people not consider what the heat can do to our four legged friends.

Not Tech, but LSU. That's where Sexton got his vet degree and that's the school he supports. So, let the NCAA give LSU the death penalty because one of their vet graduates and big supporters killed our bulldog.

Don. Dammit. Stop. Just. Stop.

I was just trying to make my post sound as stupid as Dawg80's.

Well you succeeded.

Well you succeeded.

Dang, and I was just about to tell Don that there was no way he could sound that stupid!!!

This is a terrible, terrible deal, but I'm glad we found the truth.

One question though, Dr. Sexton's statement makes it sound like the person responsible was fired as soon as Dr. Sexton learned the truth. Losing a pet because the dog was allowed outside unsupervised was not by itself a fireable offense? I do not believe I would like my dog to be boarded somewhere where losing a dog (who didn't escape) is tolerated. While I understand he may have provided excellent care to Tech XX, that sort of mistake should never happen. Am I reading that correctly?

[Dawgmatic]

Perhaps he suspected and kept him on until the truth came out.

I am an Architecture student at Tech, and we are always looking for community projects to get involved with. I am 99.999% sure that with proper funding we could build him a kick@$$ habitat!! I'm going to get in touch with some higher-ups in my department and see what we could do!

Oh if we get the the go ahead to do this project, I can assure you, you will all be proud when you see what we can come up with. We have some extremely creative people. I just hope we get the opportunity to take this on!

Honey I hope so too. We tried it 4 or 5 years ago and it was shot down from the top. And I mean the top.

I understand, I'm hoping that after this whole situation we may be able to change some minds. Also if we could get this in as an Architecture project, an "acedimic/athletics/community service project", I think the 16th floor may like it a little better. I'm pretty sure I have a few faculty members that would back us up as well. Just keeping my fingers crossed. I'm also a little lost as to where I should even start trying to get this approved, any suggestions?

Maybe your advisor?

Bill Willoughby, Karl Puljak, or Kevin Singh are a few of many really great architecture faculty who are very receptive to projects like this. If this sort of thing catches on, Jim King may eventually get involved in approving it. Then, I'm sure the SGA and athletic department would like to join in. Then you come back to BBB or some other alumni group and ask for funding.

(At least that's how I would approach it)

Whoa......not sure what to say.....REALLY???

wow, was afraid of something like this happening!
So sorry to hear this about Tech XX, was almost hopeing that it might have been a stupid fraternity prank!
