TRADITIONS OF SPIRIT
If you’ve ever been to a UNT football or basketball home game, you’ve seen our flag runners charge along the field or court with giant North Texas flags. This tradition encourages fans to show their spirit by getting loud in support of our Mean Green teams. Make sure to show your Mean Green Pride at the next football home game Saturday, Sept. 30, by cheering and chanting for UNT when you see the flag runners take the field!

UNT MINIMUM WAGE INCREASE

The wage increase will not affect students who earn more than $9.25 per hour.
Thank you to all our UNT student employees for their contribution to the success of the Mean Green community!
