So, I see that NU announced its football schedule this past week.  We 
already knew the 12 games, but the one change is the date of the game at 
Nevada.  Previously scheduled for September 23rd, that game has now been 
moved up to Friday night September 22nd and will be televised by ESPN2.

That Friday night is the first night of Rosh Hashanah.  This change 
doesn't sit well with me at all.  I wonder whether our administration 
even bothered to check out the possibility of a conflict with a 
significant religious holiday.
