I was spying on the other Oregon college papers this evening and I came across an interesting, if feebly written article from Clackamas Community College’s newspaper with a shocking revelation.
Are you ready?
Members of the Associated Student Government, which I gather is Clackamas CC’s analogue to the ASUO, drank beer and tequila. Despite being under 21.
I mean, yeah, I guess it is illegal and nobody’s saying that posting the pictures at all wasn’t really stupid. But, at the same time it’s not the type of thing that really ought to shock anybody.
What’s really amazing, though, is the thought of members of student government partying together. Not because it doesn’t happen. I’m going to tell you this: it does happen. They don’t invite me for obvious reasons (with one bizarre exception) and even if they did, I wouldn’t go, mostly because I’m not much fun. But I have overheard enough of the useless, giggly kind of gossip that comes from parties to get a pretty good idea.
The amazing part is just taking pictures such asĀ this one and pasting in the faces of, say, Carina Miller, Cassandra Gray, Kari Herinckx, and Sam Dotters-Katz with your mind. Then imagining me writing a 25-column-inch story about it, rather than simply scrolling through them giggling with Robert D’Andrea for an hour. I mean, come on, isn’t that what Woodward and Bernstein would have done?
