Math homework due date moved from Thursday to Friday. Obviously this is not, as our professor claims, so that he has time to teach us the Laplace Transform, but rather because it is Flunk Day tomorrow. | Math homework due date moved from Thursday to Friday.

− | 12:22 pm Flunk day will not be today, we got pre-enrollment continuing, a home softball double header, the English department award thing, and Bruce Polay is at the Orpheum tonight. Looks like it will be Friday!<--the next English awards aren't announced until May 7th, the Howard Wilson things is just a call for submissions. If an event is at the Orpheum, flunk wouldn't mess it up! <--- Confirmed! Flunk waits for no human!<--Bruce & Friends is on Friday...and he told us today in class that we'd have to go whether it's Flunk Day or not. <--- regardless, this will still not be flunk day, senior day for the softball team I'm pretty sure and I would sure hope that they wouldn't do that to the Seniors. <- no offense but I doubt senior softball day has any bearing on whether or not it's flunk day (I don't think it is though) <- confirmed <--- Ok, if they do that to the softball players I am personally going to rebel and not drink on flunk day, that's right. If you're not at an athlete you have no clue what it means to play one of your last home games. I'm not sure if the AD (Chad Eisele) has any say at all, but I'm sure he would do whatever he could to make it so that a team would not have to play their Senior day games on Flunk day. It is disrespectful to the Seniors, the team as a whole, the coaches, the manager(s) and the athletic trainers and staff. <--- no offense or anything but we are a D-3 school. I doubt they plan flunk day around a game that is maybe planned 6 month in advance, maybe | + | 12:22 pm Flunk day will not be today, we got pre-enrollment continuing, a home softball double header, the English department award thing, and Bruce Polay is at the Orpheum tonight.

For the record: -- from students that work closely with president Amott's office -- Teresa has never said she hates Flunk Day. We don't know where that rumor comes from, but it's BS. Of course it stresses her out, her first Flunk, but that's all. Furthermore she has little to do with when Flunk Day is and will not demand it to be after her installation. She has expressed at a faculty meeting (with many student witnesses) that she is not particularly fond of all the fuss around her installation. So that should not be used as an argument. However, the events planned for after her installation are much more an indication of Flunk Day not happening that week... That being said... FLUNK ON COWBOYS! <-YEE-HAW <-CONFIRMED-HAW <-does this leave hope for the 26th??!? <--- I think more so for the 27th, the 30th or the 1st <--- While Amott may be okay with it happening whenever, there is NO way administration will allow that. They know what to expect from Flunk Day... I say it is happening the 26th, 27th, or not until after her installation. < Amott is head of the administration... So yeah I don't think it'll be too shortly before, but she won't care if she is installed yet or not | For the record: -- from students that work closely with president Amott's office -- Teresa has never said she hates Flunk Day.

− | + | If flunk day is this week it would be Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. There's a home baseball game on Monday (today) so that makes it unlikely (it is confirmed on Eureka's schedule) Tuesday looks pretty promising with not very many events on the calendar, and Wednesday there are more home baseball games so, again, unlikely (yes I'm aware coaches don't know when flunk day is and that the schedule is made before flunk day is planned, but the planners know what the athletic schedules are and stay away from having flunk day on the day of a home sporting event, it would likely be a very poor situation for both teams and their coaches) In other words, if Flunk Day is not on Tuesday, it looks like we will have to wait another week. | |
