New color scheme question
#21
Had to chuckle at some of these comments.

https://www.reddit.com/r/UNO/comments/1u..._redesign/

Now of course, Reddit is... let's say, a different crowd from Privateer Island. But there is a definite, repeated reiteration of the same sentiment we saw when the football vote failed. Particularly: "Yes, I never liked LSU's prioritization of sports. I chose UNO because they had a great art program but it's substantially worsened in the last year. LSU is just going to make further cuts to the humanities."

Ewwww, ewwww, sportsball! EWWW!

Not that I necessarily think they will, and I don't trust them at all, but if LSU comes in and forcefully reverses that kind of crap, I'll swallow hard and cheer the purple and gold Privateers.

Ok. I couldn't help but look.

This one: "I’ve hated LSU my entire life but I’ve hated my time at UNO so much that I postponed my graduation so that i wouldn’t have a UNO degree."

Then why the hell go to the school? You hate it. You don't want the "worthless" diploma to say UNO, but you still go. So many affordable options to get a degree in Louisiana. But hey, I get it. You probably can't leave NOLA. So go to SUNO. Or better yet, if the degree you are getting is "worthless", then go to Delgado, Nunez or Northshore Technical College, i.e., trade school. Be a plumber, carpenter, electrician, mechanic or HVAC repairman.

But this dude is going to stick it out, delay graduating (i.e. pay more fees for an additional semester) just so his "worthless" degree doesn't say UNO.

Maybe he's getting the wrong degree.

My UNO degree launched a rewarding, lucrative and personally satisfying career. My UNO degree isn't "worthless". Just the opposite. It's "priceless".

Man....I don't get it.

I'm ... trying to figure out what to do there / how that works. I'm not entirely sure Sidearm still updates the app for us. Work in progress.

It's still broken but by bookmarking the website on your home page, it works like an app. I'm overthinking this.  Big Grin

I'm waiting for the University to sell some LSU New Orleans 3'x5' flags.
