[edit] Recent Events

I went to Western Kentucky. Something needs to be mentioned on this page about how a goat was raped by a faternity. It made national headlines and even made it into Jay Leno's monologue. I have a link to the newspaper article.[1](68.32.109.8 00:18, 4 May 2006 (UTC))

Why should that be mentioned? If it's true (by which I mean, if the AGRs were lying when they said they were playing mind games with pledges) then it's a real embarassment to the University and to all Hilltopper Alumni. A suggestion I have for the page is to possibly add a link to the WKU Alumni Association site as well. I would add one, but I figure that it's not there for a reason. 68.62.229.65 01:47, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

I was active in the WKU SGA for several years. The people writing the section and filling it with vanity should also consider the fact that others could write a well documented section on the insane number of scandals that have plagued the "active, well respected" SGA over the past 5 years. Maybe we should just stick to the facts worthy of mention in an encylopedia... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.140.232.128 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Athletics

The Athletics section needs to be revised. Many new things have happened. They are renovating their football stadium, building a new track facility, and the lady hilltoppers basketball team made it to the finals in the wnit last year.(68.32.109.8 10:41, 14 September 2006 (UTC))
