Davidson amps up the school spirit: "Any student who wants to attend the Wildcats' NCAA tournament game
against Wisconsin in Detroit on Friday is free to do so, President Tom
Ross said in an e-mail sent at 2:24 p.m. All they had to do was reply
withinin 96 minutes and the tab -- bus fare, hotel accommodations and
game tickets -- would be taken care of, courtesy of the college's
trustees."

I just spoke with my niece who is a Senior at Davidson this year and she said right now spaces on the bus are being handed out via a lottery system. The school is calling all over the southeast trying to find more buses. Who would have thought that 2/3 of the entire student body would sign up to go that fast. Unfortunatly, the bus Meredith is getting on is headed to Ga. Southern. She's Co-Captain of the women's tennis team and they have a match Saturday morning.
