Special to Huntingtonnews.net
Huntington, WV (HNN) – Marshall University faculty, staff, students, alumni and fans exhibit their support of the Thundering Herd in many ways, such as wearing their Marshall green.
During the upcoming football season, Herd fans are encouraged to continue that tradition by joining together and wearing green on Green Spirit Days.
The first Green Spirit Day is Wednesday, Sept. 1, the day before Marshall opens the 2010 football season at Ohio State University. On Sept. 1, the entire Marshall community is encouraged to participate by wearing green in support of the Thundering Herd. The university will continue Green Spirit Days throughout the football season by encouraging fans to wear their Marshall gear the day before a Herd game, no matter what day of the week the game is to be played.
Marshall University employees are encouraged to show their pride on campus by participating in Green Spirit Days. In addition, employees of local businesses may take part in a contest in which they wear their Marshall gear, thus earning the opportunity to win prizes from the university. Marshall alumni and fans also are being asked to wear green and participate in the event.
The university also is asking the entire Marshall community on Friday, Sept. 3 to participate in the sixth annual National College Colors Day and again show their support by wearing their Marshall gear. Fans across the nation are asked to wear their college colors and support their favorite university.
College Colors Day, organized by the Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC), coincides with “back to school” and the kickoff of intercollegiate athletics. By participating in College Colors Day, Marshall University is continuing a tradition of encouraging members of the Marshall community to wear their Marshall gear for the event.
