Minutes of the DLS: March 22, 2007

 

The meeting for Thursday, the 22nd of March 2007 was called to order at 7:05PM. There were three first-time guests, one returning guest, and one alumnus present. Mr. Hansen was appointed critic.

In Programs, we had the Intersociety Debate. We lost. Apparently philosophy faculty can't follow arguments. Also apparent: the Illiterates take to the Intersociety Agreement like a priest to an eight-year-old. For those of you who missed it: it was like the judges were Bill Frist and the Illiterary Society was Terri Schiavo, reaping the benefits of the living, despite all visible evidence to the contrary. Judging from the display by their Chief Justice, I'd call that accurate. You should at least have some sort of presence if you're going to flout the rules in such an incompetent manner. The only signs of life on their part came from a tendency to make up for their dwindling membership by hooting, great-ape-style, following every speech. Hey, guys: I think we've found the key to victory: f*ck up in every way imaginable, and then roll around in the wet spot. Oh, and judging from three fourths of their team: eat far too much discolored steak and stale chips from Taco Stand. Yeah, I went there, but don't let my graphic account ruin the taste of all those sour grapes.

Anyway, following our ignominious return to the Hall, Mr. Weeks was thanked for his efforts, despite having to miss the debate.

In New Business, there was much thanking, apologizing and smack-talking in response to our defeat, as well as much pondering and pontificating on our general Atlanta Braves-like subservience to the Illiterary Society as of late. We'll get 'em next year, kids. Then you'll see.

The meeting was adjourned at 10:35PM, subject to Mr. Hansen's critic's report.

Somewhat respectfully submitted,
William D. Richards
