Being Ignored II
May. 1st, 2006 11:50 pm So The Aggie told me that they were just waiting for me to explain the case at Senate before they covered it. I explained the case at Senate last Thursday. Today the Aggie article on that Senate meeting ran (which I can't link to at the moment because the Aggie webpage won't load). The article talks at length about recent unusual expenditures of $1,500+ for speakers and seperate graduation ceremonies for various ethnic groups, but only at the very end mentions "also they discussed the constitutional amendment and some resolutions." Clumping the resolutions together as "some resolutions" may be forgivable, but I would think a constitutional amendment is worth at least reporting the general subject.
And of course, there was no mention at all of the Court case. I'm not sure this Court case has gotten a single mention in the Aggie ever. Justice dies in silence. Darth Lloyd surely loves the Aggie.
Man I hate Mondays, I'm on campus from 8am to 11pm, with two two hour breaks.
I'm trying desperately to figure out how to play movies on my computer so I can review them at ease while writing my papers for The Dark Ages in Film class (HIS121A). I've tried downloading several different things on various people's suggestion but no luck. Any recommendations?

My birthday is coming up on the 14th of May. I hadn't really even been thinking about it at all until Kristy reminded me today.
The PAXMUN Gossip Column
At the AMPAC conference, there was a delegate who arrived while the rest of her school bailed, thus leaving her without a place to stay. Her name was Alezandra, and some of the staff took her in. This led to others among the staff to claim this was a violation of the "no fraternization rule." Others pointed out that the only thing the No Fraternization rule actually said was "keep the snake in the cage" (literally, thats how it reads). The anti-Alezandra faction went so far as to put a note up on the door to our HQ room in the executive suite that read "if you weren't on staff at the beginning of this conference stay the fuck out!!" Harsh. I was further irritated by the hypocracy inherent in the fact that another "staffer" was a "mole" -- but really he was just a delegate in a committee, termed a "mole" to bolster the claim he was on staff and could hang out with us. As a "mole" he never gave us any inside information on what the delegates were up to, and furthermore the "mole" position is not even hinted at in the rules, so I don't see how it can be an exception to the "no fraternization" rule (not that anyone was trying to snake him).
Anyway then Mark Edwards, Secretary-General of the PAXMUN series of smaller conferences called CalMUN, and of our San Diego HS conference, showed up. He proceeded to act very interested in hanging out with Alezandra, further alarming the antifraternizationalists. Alezandra was taken on as actual staff under Mark for the SDHS conference though.
I bring this all up now by way of prologue, to introduce the fact that Mark & Alezandra continued to "fraternize" at SDHSMUN, where it was all on the up and up since they were both staff. They have now been dating for two weeks.
