A story like this just makes me even prouder to be a Wildcat and so happy that EMAW is learned at an early age.

In the last week or so I posted a thread about how my daughter refused to color a Jayhawk in kindergarten class and crumnpled up the picture and threw it in the trash. Anyway, my wife wrote a blog about it (linked below) and sent it to President Shulz thinking he may get a good laugh out of it. President Shulz sent an email back to my wife telling her how funny the story was and he thanked her for sharing it. The next day we get an email and hand written note from Dr. Bosco telling Emma how proud his was of her. In the chain of emails from Dr. Bosco you can tell that the email was spread to John Currie and throughout the administration at K State.
Finally today the AD office called my wife and said that they were so proud of Emma and wanted to tell her thanks by naming her the "fan of the game" at the KSU/KU game. The PA announcer is going to introduce Emma and mention what she did. They are giving us tickets and a parking pass for the game.
All I can say is I'm so amazed at the generosity of our administration and Emma is so excited to watch the Cats take on KU.

Thinking I might change Will's nickname to "Meadowlark"

I don't hate Emma, nor do I doubt the truth of her story. But the "my kid wouldn't color the Jayhawk on Kansas Day story" isn't exatly an original one.
-
I opened that up expecting to hate the story.
But I rather enjoyed it.
-
She's a fraud. :dubious:
-
I am glad she has not been corrupted by false doctrines such as TSC.
-
not a surprising story. most KUCC grads have a hard time getting jobs out of college, congrats on this particular KUCC grad getting a teaching job and pulling down $28k a year. sounds like she's doing much better than the KUCC grad who rakes my leaves in the fall.
-
I don't have any kids so maybe I don't understand, but why did the mom try so hard to get her to color it and then apologize to the teacher? I'm pretty sure this is the opposite of what I would have done. What's the worst that can happen?
[honest question]

True. But the teacher making it a power struggle is the fresh part of said story to me. That's what makes Emma more heroic.

Because it makes the teacher look like the childish one when the mom finds a reasonable compromise and the kid ends up taking the high road.

Agreed. I was thinking the Mom kind of threw her kid under the bus on this as well. I would at least make the teacher explain why they were coloring a fictional bird on KS Day. I question my kids' teachers all the time about crap my kids have to do. Usually the teacher says something like, "Look, I think this rough ridin' stupid too, but this is part of the district's curriculum." Coloring a stupid looking bird can't be part of a curriculum.
-
Told my kid to just always color those purple. Worked the first year, second year his purple crayon was missing or too broken or something. So he colored it orange. Go pokes.

Should take your kids out of the moron school for morons.

I get the gang policy thing, as OKC has a pretty good sized gang that all wear Texas gear. However, applying the policy to a 5 year old in a Michigan shirt is rough ridin' stupid.
