I really have to get this off my chest. My intramural team got squat from appropriations and student fees are on the rise, again. There’s only one faction of students responsible for this mess—Student Government.
The real reason for this chaos is the fact their meetings are more boring than an international chess match. Their meetings could put me to a sleep, even after throwing back some Monsters. So perhaps they need to spice up their meetings up so every student would be interested to go.
Let’s back in the pick-ups, break-out the grills and start pounding down some Bojangles’ sweet tea and make those meetings into a tailgate. I guarantee they’d be a lot more productive, and even pass on some legislation the average student approves of.
Forget about swagger-jackin’ the way the real government votes on bills, spice it up with corn-hole competitions. Senators with like opinions form a team and toss the bags, and whichever team wins passes or stops the buck.
Think of the student response we could get in senate meetings if there were spectators. Students could bring signs and debate right along-side the players for making policies. Imagine how much respect Student Government could get from the student body if student fees were determined by a battle of water pong. Just accept the inevitable, student representatives are already bro-tastic , so play to your strengths and embrace your inner bro.
