Davidson Will Send More Students on More Buses to Detroit for the Elite Eight

You may have already heard about Davidson College paying for students to attend the Sweet 16 in Detroit already. The responses was so overwhelming that the school couldn't find enough buses to send the 1,000 students who wanted to go (only about 250 did get to attend).

Well, there's another chance to go.

With the Wildcats beating Wisconsin yesterday, the school is set to send more students on more buses to Detroit for their Elite Eight game against Kansas. Fellow FanHouse blogger Will Brinson received a copy of an e-mail (from Will Bryan at Will's World) sent to Davidson students:

The Trustees of Davidson College have agreed to support the cost of several morebuses and more tickets to allow additional students to attend the game against Kansas in Detroit. The game is on Sunday night, March 30, at 5:05 pm. We have five buses and can take approximately 230 students.

This is for a BUS SEAT AND A TICKET. You will not be staying overnight in a hotel.

The available buses will leave Davidson on Sunday morning at approximately 3:00 am. The buses will drive directly to the arena where the game will be played . Tip-off is at 5:05 pm. The buses will leave Detroit to return to Davidson immediately after the game and will probably arive back in Davidson between 7 am and 9 am on Monday morning.


Again, another classy move by the school.
