Sup, everyone. We hope you had an awesome weekend! Can we talk about Wyclef Jean coming to campus last Friday??? We did NOT see that coming. What we did see coming is this email full of literal lifesaving tips and moments that the Diamond Marching Band blew us away.

Drinking 101: When too much is too much

Listen up, peeps. It was just Homecoming, midterms are wrapping up and Halloween is right around the corner—basically, it’s peak party season. Speaking of drinking … there’s some serious stuff happening on college campuses lately. Like students losing their lives (seriously, their lives) because they drank too much, and their peers didn’t know what to do. That’s a situation we never want you to be in. To help prevent that from happening, we talked to a doc to find out what the signs of danger are and exactly what you should do to take action. So, plz, know what to do.

Get informed

We’re with the band

We don’t know about you, but when we grow up, we want to be in the band. Or at least with the band. Or maybe just close enough to the band so that we can profess our all-out worship for those insanely talented Gods with the instruments. Seriously, if you haven’t gone to football games to see the Diamond Marching Band perform, your ears and soul are missing out. Even Imagine Dragons thinks they’re rad (their word, not ours). Here are five times the band absolutely slayed.

Gimmie that sauce

The last couple weeks have been everything but easy. Prez Englert wants you to know we’re here for you and invites you to an evening of healing tonight at 5 at The Underground.

“We are the champions, my Owls.” ICYMI: We broke a Guinness World Record last week … with socks. 2,798 pairs of them to be exact.

Temple Theater’s Sidestage (theater co. totally run by students) is looking for plays written by you for their Short Stuff festival. No need to be a theater kid, just submit your work by Oct. 27.

@TempleBands: Hey @wyclef, if you need @TUdrumline to lay down some beats this afternoon, just say what. We’ll get it. We collab with the DJ a lot.

Does this mean we’ll be singing dolla dolla bill y’all at the next FB game?

We’ll email you every week; you can contact us whenever you want. We’d love to hear your feedback and story ideas, or anything else you think we should know.
