There has been much debate in the last twenty four hours regarding Clarkson's
"LET'S GO TECH!!" chant.  As a senior here at Clarkson, I have been told by
many that the chant originated when the school used to be called Clarkson
College of Technology (CCT), until the early 1980's.  Ever since people can
remember, the hockey chant has always been LET'S GO TECH!!.  Why change it
now?  I am not sure that just because the school is more than just engineering
is a good reason to change the chant.  The chant is almost a symbol of who
is on the ice.  There is a great deal of tradition here at Clarkson, and "LET'S
GO TECH!!"  has always been a part of it.  Speaking from a student point of
view, "LET'S GO TECH" is easier to say than Let's Go Knights anyways.
 
I hope to return years from now to see Clarkson Hockey, and  look forward
to the students and others shouting "LET'S GO TECH!!" at that time.
