Casteen’s Final ‘State of the U’ Speech Still on for Tuesday
This — along with graduation — may be one of the final major public events at which Casteen will make extended remarks before he retires Aug. 1. I know the weather forecast is not wonderful, and that the crowd usually consists of administrators, a few faculty and fewer students, but it would be nice if the University community packed the place in a show of appreciation for Casteen’s two-decade stewardship.
About 6,000 people turned out Saturday in the midst of a snowstorm for the men’s basketball game against Wake Forest. Certainly, a couple hundred folks ought to be able to find their way to Old Cabell at noon tomorrow.
