Dear Students:
Eastern Illinois University is very proud and excited to be hosting a
Division I National Collegiate Athletic Association Football Championship
Subdivision game at 1:00P on Saturday, December 7, at O'Brien Field.
FREE admission will be offered to the first 2,000 EIU students who present
their valid Panther Card at Gate 1 at O'Brien Field. The gate will open
at 11:30A.
Come out and watch your Panthers, ranked number 2 in the Football

Go Panthers!
Sincerely,
Daniel P. Nadler, Ph.D.
