I’m so sad to hear about Blue II. We had a lot of great memories when he was first a puppy on campus running around Hinkle. A true testament to the Butler Way and representing Butler on a national level. Blue II will b…

Butler Blue II – ‘In Memoriam’
Amy Kelleher
Blue II won my heart just because I’m a Butler fan. By way of social media, his presence was perfectly maintained. While being case in point for effective use of social media — brilliantly and deftly managed — the high level of awareness brought to the university through Blue II’s role also had much to do with his personality. Not just any Dawg could have managed being Butler’s ambassador…

Dear Blue,

I’m so sorry for the loss of Blue II. He was such a wonderful dog! I have several memories of him but my two favorite are when my son, Xander, would visit campus we would always have to go find Blue II. He played with him a lot! My second is when I was managing the BU Mail Center located in the basement of Holcomb and Blue II would come visit. We had a plastic frog that would “ribbit” wit…
