Letter to the Editor
'Light-hearted' diversions bring smiles to students

To say that the Chicken Man is at all related to a mascot for the food chain Cluck-U-Chicken is preposterous.

The Chicken Man is not a marketing tool, but more of a campus Santa Claus.

Everyone who has seen the Chicken Man in action has to have at least a little bit of admiration for his showmanship.

He has confidence and an ability to bring out that inner child in every student at the university.

Whether he is tap-dancing down the street, dropping in on your lecture to give the instructor an egg or simply taking his hen Henderson for a walk, some part of you just wants to smile.

His light-hearted antics are a great break, for everyone, from the monotony of everyday life.
