1 week! ... kind of

Here we are, a few hours after ... what would be a week. Due to some concerns voiced by the mama bear and a few professors, I ate dinner Friday night. Regretted it almost immediately; word to the wise, don't eat Chinese on an empty stomach.

"Effective immediately, 9 additional faculty and 1 staff member positions were removed from their respective lists, further reducing the total impacted positions from the original total of 44 to 21 (12 faculty and 9 staff). We also recently received and accepted a letter of resignation from a valued faculty member which is included in this retrenchment," said an email from President Hendricks last Wednesday.

With great pleasure, I would like to announce that the Political Science department has been saved. At least, as far as we know. The list of professors isn't a public file for some reason and I emailed President Hendricks trying to find out why but have yet to hear anything in response. He's a busy man, I understand.

I will be taking $40 to the presidents office tomorrow thanks to those who have purchased their shirts from the first order; Nancy Russomano, Dr. Dettwiler, Aryn Hedrick, Zach Johnson, Kalen Honeyfield, Bryan Mahosky, Kelly Raleigh, and Sarah Mirabile. Anyone who is interested in a SAVE THE PROFS t-shirt, write names and sizes on the Facebook page listed below. They are $5 and the funds will go to scholarships for students.

"What they did not want you to ever find out is that your generation, the generation born between 1980-1995, actually outnumbers the Baby Boomers. They knew that if you ever turned your eye towards political reform, you could change the world. They tried to keep you sated on vapid television shows and vapid music. They cut off your education and fed you brain candy. [...] We as a society are only as strong as our weakest link. Give 'em hell, kids."
