“President Hurley on
Devil Goat Day”

April 25, 2013

Pictured here is President Richard V. Hurley, who served as the interim president before becoming the UMW president from 2010 to 2016. The mechanical bull remains a popular part of Devil-Goat day festivities

The 2010s saw an even greater increase in student involvement in Devil-Goat Day. As the school realized that the 100-year anniversary was only a decade away, students began to establish new traditions that students will look forward to for years to come.

T-shirts are a prized item that students look forward to receiving every year. The design is different each year (and the colors are slightly different each year too), making the shirts even more collectible. Other kinds of memorabilia have also been made available, objects like the baseball hats seen below, which were available at Devil-Goat Day in 2018, or the Eagle plushies in 2025.
