Why do we hate our students!!!

[BabbForHeisman]

If there are no students, I would like to propose a Ragin Pagin meetup on the front row, during the game.

Martin Hall, as usual, is doing their best to kill the future donor base, or more accurately to abort it in the third trimester. Since 1973 virtually every decision from Martin Hall affecting student and/or alumni engagement with the University has been to discourage engagement. When all us old geezers [I am class off 1974] are gone, MH will look around and see no donors and no fans ..... and promptly blame the few that remain for the demise of the donor/fan base.

Heidie Lindsey: "Reminder! No drinking games of any kind at the tailgate and your ice chest must say "Over 21."

UL Frats/Sors: "What? Why? We've always been able to do that?"

Heidie Lindsey: "Because we said so."

UL Frat/Sors: "Well that's dumb. We'll just stay at our houses and play games."

Heidie Lindsey: "No, its family day and you need to be at the game! No excuses!"

UL Frat/Sors: "Tailgating is PART of the game and you're ruining it for us. We'd rather just have fun with friends at our houses."

Heidie Lindsey: "That's it! No one is allowed at the greek houses on gameday!"

UL Frat/Sors: "But, uh.. we.. PAY.. to live there, soooo?"

Heidie Lindsey: "Well not this Saturday you don't! And we'll have University Police standing at the doors to make sure you don't try to sneak in, you disgusting little pervs! I love Joe BIDENNNN!"

Basically how that went..

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”

― C. S. Lewis

Wonder if that book is allowed on campus…

God in the Dock: Essays on Theology (Making of Modern Theology)

This proposed boot to the throat move reminds me of the “Pro American Ralley” at Martin Hall in ‘79, called such where there was no Iranian Protest to the hostage crisis. Hand picked speakers, pre approved speeches nothing inflammatory.

But hey, a couple of Middle Eastern dudes went fist city anyway, much to the dismay of MH.

As Solomon said, “there’s nothing new under the sun”.

They would have burned it but there's a statewide barbecue ban

Now that's a great idea! Let's take the one spot that makes quality merchandise and have them risk getting their license pulled. Take the blinders off and look at the full situation and possible outcomes. You really are the smartest man in the room.

Thanks for proving our point that the administration is the gestapo. Actively looking to shut down anything that isn't under their control. Honestly. Your takes have kinda made you the "not smartest" person in the room. Have you ever held an independent thought apart from the administration? Serious question.

Anyone who took that very obvious joke seriously is a blithering idiot. Not surprising that you did. You have a sense of humor on par with Joe Scaroborough.

And cjr3888 will still be here defending them.

It's already happening. All you have to do is look at the people they're (the admin) sending out to excuse this or lie about it. It's ALWAYS the fans fault.

I don't recall defending anyone but continue with the blinders. I've pointed out both sides and offered some possible solutions.

Why yes I have. Go look and see that I haven't defended the Administration anywhere when it comes to this decision. Make sure to finish everyone in that circle jerk you, MAT, and some others have going on.
