We continued our self guided tour on the Chapel Trail. A ⅓ mile walk (uphill both ways) to the Cadet Chapel which is normally the highlight of a trip to USAFA. But as the sign at the visitors center said, the cadet chapel is closed for a multi year restoration and the expected opening is 2027.

I think we managed to hit all of the highlights of the University of Illinois campus including the student union, the quad, the tornado shelter, the math building where we could not get to the top of the bell tower, the indoor practice facility that was locked, and even the preacher who told us we were all going to hell.

Illinois Press Release

Date: August 10, 2022 | …Al goes on further to state that “We are also glad to make this trip in August and we hope to get a beautiful sunny day to enjoy all that the University and its surroundings have to offer”.

At a school that is rich with tradition, this might be the king of traditions. Texas A&M does not have cheerleaders, they have Yell Leaders. The night before each game the yell leaders lead the band and crowd in various yells, The Aggie War Hymn, and other antics mocking the weekly opponent to hype the crowd for the game the following day.
