Auburn Creed

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.

I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.

I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.

I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.

I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.

I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.

I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."

And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.
-George Petrie (1945)

If you are interested, let me know so I can reserve it for us. UPDATE: The event will be in a private room “IT IS NOW FAMILIES FRIENDLY!!!”

C. Gordon Biersch said they’d reserve tables for us in the bar if we let them know how many AU fans will be there–RSVP with a number in the comments section if it’s going to be more than just you –so we get the right number of seats

D. Rumor has it they’ve invited the Clemson Club too–so let’s show them some WDE PRIDE!!

I hope to see everyone there!!! WAR EAGLE!!!
