Flunk Day 2008 is tomorrow.
Contents
Rumors & Scares
Monday, Apr 21
Rumors point to Monday as a good candidate date. This is corroborated by the fact that the 21st is now tomorrow, and everyone knows that Flunk Day is tomorrow.
However, one has to wonder whether the administration is really going to put flunk day right after 4/20.
Still, it might be worth it to throw off Ashcroft protests.
Tuesday, Apr 22
This date is likely for two reasons: first, the fact that it's Earth Day and the administration might want to disrupt festivities so that independently organized club events don't make the college's half-assed official sustainability efforts look bad.
Second, the John-Ashcroft-is-a Hoax theory states that actually John Ashcoft was never coming at all, and that it was simply a massive hoax to throw people off the track of Flunk Day. Then again, they totally wouldn't have it to the public on the website. But it would certainly explain why no senate funds were used to bring him and why such a big name came to Knox.
Wednesday, Apr 23
Pretty much everyone thinks it's Wednesday. It would be a good way to work off stress from john Ashcroft, and the weather prognosis is the best this week. But flunk day was probably planned long before weather reports came out.
Thursday, Apr 24
Nick Kalmus thinks so.
Friday, Apr 25
Well, it's never been on a friday yet...
