Dear BSU Daily News Editor,
My wife and I graduated from BSU a number of years ago. I grew up in Muncie and I have followed BSU football and basketball for many years as a long time fan. We attended the BSU Men and Women's basketball game last Saturday and we do not understand the reason or reasons why less than 2 or 3 hundred students came to those games? With more than 17 thousand students living on campus those games should have been packed with screaming students backing their [Mid-American Conference] leading men AND women's basketball teams! Those teams deserve the "6th man/woman" following that helps win close games and they simply are not getting it from their own fellow students. We have been in the arena when it has been full to the top and it is a fantastic thing to see. You students have a "ticket" to just walk in and the arena has seats that are "crying" for you to take. We looked around and could see the "sad seats" missing you. Please write to the BSU Daily News a few of the 17 thousand reasons that you did not attend and maybe it will help us figure out what needs to be done to keep the BSU basketball programs alive. It is a sorry picture to show those high school recruits that come to a BSU basketball game to decide if they want to come BSU to play.
Sincerely Yours,
Phil & Sharon Brooks

We should return to the childhood artist we leave behind when we grow up
