- One of the earlier traditions on campus was the wearing of green beanie caps by the freshman class.
- After the 1931-932 season, women’s basketball ceased to exist until the 1976-77 season. There was a general belief among several individuals who attended the university in the 1930s and 1940s that concern for the health of women athletes was the primary reason for its demise. Some thought that basketball was too rigorous an exercise for young women and could be injurious to their health.
