| Pictured above: The new statue to be constructed |
“Needless to say I was shocked!” said Gray as he was trying to explain how such a blunder could occur. “I don’t remember ever signing off on any type of art. I think I can speak for the whole board when I say that any funding of the arts is purely accidental.”
The clause that essentially allowed for the construction of the statue was tucked away in the hefty 15-page packet that was passed out prior to the beginning of the meeting. Junior, and VP of the Student Board, Sarah Filman, wasn’t too surprised something like this happened. “That was a pretty big packet they passed out; normally it’s only like 10 pages. They could have thrown a new Engineering degree in those last five pages and it probably would have passed,” said Filman. “Wait, what was that? We just started one? Man, we must really not care anymore.”
The statue to be constructed will be a depiction of a 3-way plug entitled, “Gracies Get Plugged In.” BrandPoet, Grace’s marketing team, has praised the double meaning this statue will bring to campus. They believe this plug will inspire and excite students to get involved. The location for the statue will be in front of Alpha Hall; after all, that place could really use a facelift.
Despite their best efforts, this isn’t the first time something like this has passed unnoticed by the Student Board. The closing of the Grille and Tree of Life for only one choice in subs for dinner and extremely burnt coffee from Jazzman’s can also be attributed to the Student Board’s lack of detailed attention, or attention at all.
However, this is an election year for most board members so we can rest assured that change will undoubtedly come soon. Besides, no member wants to hit the campaign trail with little to no results.
