I guess the uniform (whether real or AI) was trying to channel the old version of the Seminole woman on the Florida Seal.



That depiction on the seal has been changed, as the Seminole women probably didn't wear that type of dress.

Kathy Boudin (May 19, 1943 – May 1, 2022)[1] was an American radical leftist who served 23 years in prison for felony murder based on her role in the 1981 Brink's robbery. Boudin was a founding member of the militant Weather Underground organization, which engaged in bombings of government buildings to express opposition to U.S. foreign policy and racism



quote:

She was released on parole in 2003. After earning a doctorate, Boudin became an adjunct professor at Columbia University.[3]


That tells you all you need to know about the mindset of Ivy League colleges.

On this date in Vol Football History, September 24, 1938 Tennessee and head coach Robert Neyland defeated Sewanee 26-3 at Shields-Watkins Field in the season opener. Tennessee would go on to post a perfect 11-0 record.

I think that was still a confidence game at that time. When did Sewanee leave the conference?

According to Google it was a conference game.

Sewanee left the Southeastern Conference (SEC) in 1940. As a founding member, the University of the South withdrew from the conference in 1940 to de-emphasize "big-time" football and focus more on academics.

Took a date there once. Another date to Monsour's. Walnut Hills is still a go to.

And, yes, it's a fricking crime what has happened to Vicksburg.

I love looking at old Baton Rouge photos. I always go to Google Earth and try to find the current location of the old photo.

I would have guessed Park Blvd. That big house looks very similar to the Corner of Cherokee and Park.

William Faulker would have turned 128 years old today if he was still of this earth. My best friend growing up lived across the street from the historical marker in the 80s and 90s and the house served as the Presbyterian Church's parsonage back then. You can see the church next door in the second photo taken in 2015. The home was purchased by the Union County Historical Society a few years ago and now serves as a museum and Inn that offers overnight stays.
