McIntire Madness begins today!

It's time for McIntire Madness, baby! Selection Sunday is the 14th, but we've already selected the McIntire Madness teams: undergraduate and graduate classes 2002-2009. Sixteen teams will compete, but only one will win.

Last year the undergraduate Class of 2005 dominated the competition. But this year, it is any team's game. Below are the participation percentages by class, graduate and undergraduate, to-date:

U 2002 - 6.4%
G 2002 - 10.5%
U 2003 - 8.9%
G 2003 - 7.7%
U 2004 - 9.4%
G 2004 - 10.4%
U 2005 - 10.3%
G 2005 - 13.2%
U 2006 - 8.1%
G 2006 - 13.6%
U 2007 - 7.3%
G 2007 - 11.2%
U 2008 - 7.2%
G 2008 - 11.4%
U 2009 - 14.3%
G 2009 - 8.6%

The undergraduate Class of 2009 is currently in the lead, but could easily be overtaken by any other team. It only takes a few donors to raise your participation rate by one percentage point. Spread the word and help your team win!
