STR - Harding Academy "Happy in Memphis" video - mikeybmemphis - 03-18-2014 12:12 PM
There's a kid wearing a Tigers shirt in the video so that's good enough to say "STR". Everyone should watch this video. It rules.
They took the idea from the actual music video for this song, but made it all about Memphis. Very nicely done. The only thing missing is some mascots from local teams (UofM/Grizz/Redbirds), but I guess they felt if one college was invited then all had to be? I dunno... either way enjoy the video. Many good shots of the Liberty Bowl.

Also, sorry if this has already been posted in some other thread, or somewhere else and I just didn't notice.

They weren't back in my day...that was the running joke with most of us sharing the video yesterday.
I'll take any little bit of progress made, for sure.

One of the faculty just puts the videos together in his free time with his own equipment. The kids love it and it reps our school. The Christmas video was fantastic as well.
Harding is still a Christian school but it is no longer Church of Christ. We have many denominations and non Christians as well in our student body. The kids can dance all night if the beats just right.

Holy Chihuahua! It's been 30 years since my Harding Academy days... guess that was long enough for the school to evolve from a dour, straight-laced bunch of Leisure Suit Lions to this new pride of progressive, positive, and pretty hep cats! That, or my judgement of cool is way out of date... seriously, nothing like that would have EVER been associated with the old Cherry Road Cabal of Conservative Cranks. Wow!

You must be pulling my leg and my arm... Harding is no longer affiliated with the C of C? When did that go down? It's always been open to students of any faith (especially one who pay their tuition in advance), but the Church of Christ was the only acceptable brand of religion when it came to chapel, bible class and staff selection. Do tell...

Harding has really changed even since I went there in the 80's. It dropped the C of C affiliation a couple of years ago and is a great place for kids. I have 2 in high school there.
It is the most diverse private school in the city and is doing a great job of providing a great christian environment where the kids know being saved doesn't mean you can't have fun.
The new president at the school has really put a fresh coat of paint on the school both internally and externally.

Wow. I had no idea it had officially dropped the CoC affiliation....how are they working that out with having an elementary location in one??

Works fine. Pay rent and be a good tenant. Still have faith as the prime mission and tenant of the school. The school has simply opened up to a more accepting positions. Less than 30% of the students identify as C of C but over 80% identify as Christian.

For all the alums, the track is being dedicated to Ron Rubio this weekend. Many of you will remember him as a tremendous man and teacher.
As for the video, it has over 65,000 hits and is really putting the school in a positive light.
Quite a few of Harding grads have worn Tiger blue and we have at least 1 alum on the current football roster.
