[Vision2020] Friday Fireworks

[Carl Westberg]

I'm over my limit for posts for the day, but I have to chime in on 
homecoming fireworks.  Regardless of the win-loss record, homecoming and 
it's trappings, including fireworks, are part of what makes a residential 
college experience.  I was glad to see, and hear the fireworks again.  Carl 
Westberg Jr.
