since we're getting closer and closer it feels like a good time to remind everyone that the Flunk Day planning committee are just people with full plates and an entire schedule to worry about and aggravating them with questions like "when's Flunk Day?" and "why did you plan it for a rainy day??" every other day is super exhausting and not helpful at all. We cannot have a repeat of the tormenting they got last year, Maddie and everyone else on the team (sorry I don't remember everyone on there) deserve better so fckn give them that!

Posters that say "Flunk Day is tomorrow ... or is it?" have been put all around campus, saying that there's something coming this Friday?

It's going to be this day because this is the one day I don't want it to happen.

There once was a Flunk that put to rest
 
 
All previous Flunks of twenty years past
 
 
The tales flew wild, the term dipped down
 
 
Oh drink, my Knoxians, drink (hey)
 
 
 
Soon may the 100th Flunk come
 
 
To bring us vodka, PBRs and rum
 
 
One day, when the Flunking is done
 
 
We'll take our shirts and go!
 
 
^^^
 
Happy countdown

Given how late flunk day was last year, I'm guessing we're going earlier this year to compensate. This day seems like a decent guess. Don't @ me.

Dean McLean's babies turn one on this day - birthday flunk for the twins?
 
 
I heard Andy Gibbons talking about how much setup he needed to do for an event on this day…could it be?
 
 
This day could be too close to inauguration activities to work
 
 
Baseball plays Augustana this day. But here's the catch it is on our schedule online without a time. It's not on Augustana's team schedule. The only game on their schedule is the one on the 3rd.
 
 
This is also the only sunny day this week
 
 
Physio does presentations every friday, however, this week is the only one in the schedule we don't have one. Does Nick Gidmark know when flunk is?????
 
 
Baseball game mysteriously canceled???
 
 
Trucks in walmart - There are always trucks at Walmart. The flunk day trucks will be at the hotels.
 
 
Its tomorrow i feel it in my balls…
 
 
Flunk day planners spotted at walmart buying major carts of snacks AND JUGS at 9 pm!!!
 
 
^its wayyyy too late for them to be stocking up if its 5/4
 
 
I was with sarah wallenfelsz at 9PM exactly she was on campus
 
 
^omg....I'm my own independent human being separate from kathryn/the rest of the committee....thats crazy dude
 
^if i (maggie garrett) am dead tomorrow yall know who did it
 
 
It was Kathryn Allee
 
 
*["The Night After Flunk Day" Poem was put here for some reason.]*
 
 
^^wrong poem??
 
^i like the idea this presents of flunk day having already happened and everybody just missed it somehow
 
 
people on yikyak claiming to find trucks but refusing to post pictures lol
 
 
today is the RA new/old training. as I have first hand experience with how hard it is to reschedule stuff I think there is no flunk
 
 
Flunk Day trucks SPOTTED at Green Oaks Biological Field Station!!!!!!! First groaks flunk??? Could be big..........................................
 
 
 
Rock wall spotted near monmouth!!!!!CONFIRMED

=== The Incident ===
 
 
SOMEONE PRETENDED TO BE DEB SOUTHERN FOR A FAKEOUT FLUNK EMAIL. It is from a Knox Edu google group.
 
 
^
 
Greatest flunk scare in history, but a flunk scare nonetheless. Well played to whoever did it
 
 
^^ now I actually have to go to my 8am class :(
 
 
Yikyak has said that the culprit has been caught. Any guesses on who did it?
 
 
I heard that it was a freshman working with a couple of CS major seniors???
 
 
 
 
11:26 PM: NO sign of trucks, climbing walls, or even a raptor. Flunk day is nowhere in sight

Don't quote me on this but this seems like a good day for flunk day idk. The vibes are good for a may 5th flunk methinks
 
 
they just sent out an email with a million things happening thursday for inaguration i feel like it is not today
 
 
please for the love of god let it not be on this day
 
 
hear me out they moved president inauguration to the orpheum so that it’s fine if drunk people trash campus or ruin the stage or something on thursday flunk
 
 
- 12:08 AM: I seriously doubt it's going to be today, but hey, maybe there will be another =incident=.
 
 
- 2:10 PM: yeah, hahaha called it. Although, the lawns are mowed and I have seen it raining a lot, so maybe the first flunk friday since 1957 or something will be tomorrow?

'Twas the TRUE night before Flunk Day
 
When good children lay
 
awaiting the bedlam
 
of pots and pans,
 
from friars who sing
 
of the good tidings they bring:
 
News of booze
 
Stories of glory
 
A broadcast! At long last!
 
The day has arrived
 
and the students have survived
 
a full year of college.
 
Thus, UB has acknowledged
 
that this is cause for celebration,
 
for excessive laughter and jubilation.
 
So, go ahead, go wild!
 
Run around like a child!
 
Make friends with strangers,
 
keep one another out of danger.
 
Relax and tan on the lawn,
 
or party 'til the new dawn.
 
And maybe get just a little drunk
 
because today, my friends, is a day to flunk!

Holi Festival postponed this week until next weekend, week 7 flunk?
 
 
Statistically this is definitely it. Idk my tarot said so.
 
 
nothing of importance is scheduled this day, this is the one
 
 
could def be today... after inaguration but still time to recover before homecoming
 
 
God it better be a Monday Wednesday or Friday, I work at 8am those days I don't need a TT flunk making me show up to work hungover
 
<----it's not gonna be friday lol
 
 
I feel strongly about today
 
 
person on YikYak (camera icon) claiming to know for sure its today
 
 
no sports listed for this whole week
 
 
The person who did the Incident (see above) was told they have to meet with admin on Monday. Why would they schedule this meeting if that’s the real flunk?
 
<----OR they INTENTIONALLY scheduled the meeting for flunk day to mess with their plans
 
 
*SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT: MarQuita Barker's (VP of Student Development) Calender has a massive event book ALL day on Monday. I'm not saying Flunk Day confirmed, but...FLUNK DAY CONFIRMED. PROOF: https://imgur.com/a/bMFLsw9
 
*DUDE, that could be ANYONE'S calendar.
 
*Has is occurred to you that you could see MarQuita's calendar, yourself, to double check, you clown?
 
 
I'm a Monday May 9th Flunk Truther now.
 
 
There is no way in ~HELL~ it's today
 
 
I heard that it will for sure be this week. Monday seems like the most likely.
 
 
Admission has visitors. Flunk denied
 
 
^^Admissions actually WILL tour prospies on flunk day! They just make the admission counselors do it ;)
 
 
THE BEANS ARE SOAKING
 
 
TRUCKS AT AMERICINN - FLUNK DAY CONFIRMED - the zipline is there ! ! !
 
 
proof: https://i.imgur.com/B588Rdq.jpeg
 
 
^confirmed
 
 
any other trucks? not saying i don't believe you but usually there's more than that - there were more, the usual Penske rental trucks they get. There were 2 of those.
 
 
Isn't that last year's photo?????????
 
 
Someone posted a pic of them in front of the truck!
 
https://twitter.com/streetcarsrule/status/1523492714183991297?s=20&t=BAr-uECfadkA5HdKeMoJNQ
 
 
A few trucks don’t confirm anything. They could have just gotten here early. We need more info.
 
 
UB Operations coordinator JUST brought home a puppy??? Monday flunk confirmed
 
 
 
'Twas the night before Flunk Day and all through the campus
 
 
Not a Knoxie was stirring, not even a SMC rat
 
 
The vodka were placed by the door with care
 
 
In the hopes that friars soon would be there
 
 
The first years were nestled all snug in their beds
 
 
While visions of flunk danced in their heads.
 
 
Marquita in her kerchief and I in my cap
 
 
Had just settled down for a short spring nap.
 
 
When out on the Old Main lawn there arose such a clatter
 
 
I sprang from my bed to see what was the matter
 
 
Away to the window I flew with a flash
 
 
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash
 
 
The moon on the breast of the freshly mown grass
 
 
Gave a luster of mid-day to objects below.
 
 
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
 
 
But a Penske truck and nets and gear to spare
 
 
With a little old driver so lively and rad
 
 
Well I knew in a moment, it must be President McGad
 
 
More rapid than eagles, his coursers they came
 
 
And he whistled and he shouted and he called them by name
 
 
"On Maddie, on Sarah, on Kathryn and John
 
 
On Tori, on Myrissa, on Charlie and Blaze!
 
 
To the top of the porch, to the top of the wall
 
 
Now, dash away, dash away, dash away all!"
 
 
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly
 
 
When they meet to an obstacle mount to the sky
 
 
So up to the rooftop the coursers they flew
 
 
With a sleigh full of drugs and alcohol and McGadney too.
 
 
And then in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
 
 
The dancing, the laughing of each planner
 
 
As I drew in my head and was turning around
 
 
Down the bell tower McGadney came with a bound
 
 
He was dressed all in purple from his head to his foot
 
 
And his clothes were all tarnished with grass stains and dirt
 
 
A bundle of shots he had flung on his back
 
 
And I laughed when I saw him in spite of myself
 
 
A wink of his eye and a twist of his head
 
 
Soon gave me to know I had nothing to dread
 
 
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work
 
 
And set up the first sunny flunk in four years
 
 
And giving a nod up the chimney he rose
 
 
He sprang to his sleigh, and to his team gave a whistle
 
 
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle
 
 
But I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight
 
 
"Merry Flunk to all and to all..goodnight
 
 
Goodnight."
 
 
 
IT'S FLUNK BABEY

Tuesday flunk plz - this post was made by the TT 2s 5s gang
 
 
Not today flunk pls - this post was made by the MWF 2, 3, 4 gang
 
 
There's a fulbright information session on this day, which seems like they wouldn't put Flunk Day here. It's reschedulable, sure, but still seems important ENOUGH to be considered.
 
^ there was a Fulbright event before and an upcoming one close by.
 
 
Spanish translation class has interviews this day. Would suck if they had to miss Flunk for it.
 
 
There are also interviews for a new director of counseling so it doesn’t seem likely that it’s today…

they were looking at flunk day stuff in the archives in the winter i wouldn’t be surprised if it was on this day!
 
 
I've heard through the grapevine that this day is Flunk Day
 
 
^ can confirm! I asked Maddie about this day and she seemed very suspicious when she answered with "maybe ... maybe not"
 
 
they don't know lol they're fucking with you
 
 
^ i'm pretty sure they know the date
 
 
^Flunk Day Planner here. We know the date. Maddie has known the date for months.
 
 
Ask Charlie Tucker, he knows and is willing to share.
 
 
^ I asked Charlie if Flunk Day was May 11th and his little tail was extra wiggly. Flunk Day confirmed!
 
 
===Blessings in a Backpack Debate===
 
 
Blessings Blues & Brews is on this day. It is a huge event for Union Board and Blessings. I'm sure they wouldn't plan this event the same day as flunk day.
 
 
Blessings in a Backpack and UB don’t know the date though 👀 theoretically any event could be ok Flunk Day, admin only considers really big college wide events when they set the schedule
 
 
^^^this. baseball got shafted a couple years back, they were at an away game during Flunk
 
 
People can submit events to be considered though when they decide Flunk Day and Joel Estes said that they asked in advance since it's such a big event for them
 
 
The BiB event is more for upperclassmen and townies (21+) so its not going to change flunk day

absolutely 5/12. pls i wanna see the alumni visiting for homecoming drunk off their asses
 
 
no. this is our flunk day. get the alumni out of here.
 
 
No way it's entering the next week though
 
 
homecoming does need some set up time, and they can't exactly get started during flunk day
 
 
we have educational consultants coming this day. for sure no flunk
 
 
SUPER doubt it, they want to maintain a respectable image for homecoming and a campus of drunk students is risky...
 
 
if it's a Thursday flunk we need to keep stockpiling. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday party baby!!!!
