I feel the need

The following slogans were submitted to the United States Air Force Academy in August 2002. The school solicited suggestions to replace one of its mottoes, “Bring Me Men,” which was deemed inappropriate following the discovery that rape and sexual harassment of female cadets were endemic at the institution.
