Lack of News Horrifies Student Group Leadership

Tom Leet, The Stool

Midway through the semester and under pressure to spend their budgets, student group leaders have realized that their groups don’t actually do anything or have anything significant to say. Jane Ingbar, President of Beta Theta Phi law fraternity, silently left the organization’s first general meeting of the semester last Thursday close to tears.

“I don’t understand what happened. I had a two-page outline for Christ’s sake!” said Ingbar. “Two pages! And the pizza was ten minutes late so I seriously thought I could shoot the shit with the other members – you know, kill some time – turns out, I don’t really know any of these people. How the hell are you supposed to talk to people you don’t even know?

“Well, regardless, of the panic that set in while waiting for the delivery guy, I was halfway through my outline five minutes into the meeting! Do you know!?! Do you have any fucking idea what that’s like!?!”

Ingbar then suddenly became silent as her lips continued to move while she wildly gesticulated, but nothing audible came out of her mouth. Somewhere in the distance, a dog howled.

Billy Anderson, Beta Theta Phi’s vice-president, walked up behind his organization’s head officer and slowly led her away.

“And you, cock head!,” said a rearticulate Ingbar. “Why don’t you fucking say something?!? All you do is sit there and eat the pizza!”
