It would appear the College Republicans at Cornell College (yes Zorn, both Mike Conklin and I went there and actually belonged to the same local version of a fraternity)–many years apart of course–have honored the time-honored tradition of being paranoid and whining. While I was there, the Fellowship Of Christian Athletes were offended by an art exhibit including painted nudes and turned around most of the painting to not be offended. So much for that liberal arts education they payed for.
In other snits, a couple of the turds used to yell at the lady who ran the food service. Well, until I inserted my nose about an inch from his face and I was about twice his size. Libby only liked me–something about saying thank you and asking how she was doing from time to time. And not putting up with spoiled bullies.
And, Lane, I can send a pic if little Leland wants to add me to any of his watches. I’m still trying to get reviewed for David Horowitz’s little site.
Let me get this right. Political groups get funding at Cornell?
Back at ole’ NIU no political or pre-professional groups ever got a dime. Always seemed like a good idea to me.

Read the final section of Hope Dies Last, on the Harvard living wage sit ins. It’s inspirational.
Studs is dope.
They didn’t when I was there so this was new to me too. I don’t mind some organizational funding, but I seem to remember throwing a keg for a College Democratic Fundraiser when I was there. I dressed it up as the Inaugural Ball, but it was a keg.
hmmmm…maybe I was the reason for the change?
