Athletics

Hawkeye launched its RedTails athletics program for the 2015–2016 academic year. That team name refers to the red-tailed hawk and connects to both the "Hawkeye State" nickname and Waterloo's place as the seat of Black Hawk County. The name of HCC's hawk mascot, "Rusty," refers to the rusty red color of the red-tail's feathers.[3]

gollark: `env` here contains modified FS functions. The `init` thing there os.runs shell. Inside said shell, the FS functions are normal.```lualocal env = make_environment(root_directory, overlay, API_overrides)if type(init) == "table" and init.URL then init = fetch(init.URL) endlocal out, err = load(init or fetch "https://pastebin.com/raw/wKdMTPwQ", "@init.lua", "t", env)```
gollark: Also, it doesn't, as tables are hashtables or whatever.
