There are tremendous amounts of school spirit, even after graduating. There are many alumni who travel all over the country for our school's football and basketball games. It is almost impossible to get season tickets for any sports, because most alumni will travel from all over to come back for home sporting events as well. Even those who have not yet attended the school have just as much spirit, and participate in school events. I was attending university footballs games from the time I was born, and now my family's young children are carrying on the tradition.
