Paws Up

As the University’s official mascot, Will D. Cat may lead the pack in showing school spirit, but he is far from the only four-legged ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥ fan. When the call went out for Nova Nation to share photos of their pets, our inbox was filled with adorable creatures wearing blue and white. Here are just a few of ÄÌÌÇÖ±²¥â€™s most loyal furry friends.
