Humiliated ...Again
Every year City College manages to pull a fast one on Greendale. This year... they hacked into our website and plastered their logo all over the site. Last year they sent an email to the entire GCC student body telling them classes were cancelled for the week signed by the Dean. No one came to school for the whole week. I think the Dean even second guessed whether he approved that letter.
I ask you, student body of GCC, why can't we ban together and finally pull a fast one on City College? Perhaps if we start planning it now we will have a solid plan by this time next year. I would give anything to get those arrogant, spoiled City College debate kids something to talk about.
The Dean is more concerned with pranks that student might pull one another to think big picture. He's hired extra campus security officers to patrol campus in hopes that you're snake-in-a-can jokes don't get out of hand. And yet, we can't password protect the website enough to stop a rival school from plastering their logo everywhere.
So, while all you students are thinking up the funny April Fool's Day pranks to play on your fellow students, teachers, study group members, I encourage you to think big... think City College big. It's time Greendale had its moment in the spotlight. We are a smart student body with people ranging in age from 16 - 98. I firmly believe that we can FINALLY take back our dignity and show City College who is boss. Well, not this year, but at least next year.
Beginner Pottery
Classes are once again in full swing after the holiday break. With tough courses like Statistics and Spanish 102 it sometimes feels like I am going to a full fledged University! Although we are required to take these rigorous courses, an easy course or two here and there can help even things out. That's why we have found two classes for you Greendale students that we categorize as "blow-off" classes, easy "A's" if you will.
The first is Beginning Pottery with Professor Holly. This is the epitome of an easy class. All you are required to do is try, and for most of us that means put in the minimal effort required to show up to class and put our hands in some clay. How much easier can it get? But there is one catch. Professor Holly will not tolerate any references to the famous potter scene in "Ghost". This "ghosting" as she calls it is absolutely out of the question. Trust me, I know it can be hard to resist the urge. But as long as you can get through the semester without "ghosting" you will most certainly receive the easiest "A" of your life.
The second easy elective is Sailing with Admiral Slaughter. This course may require a little more effort than promising not to "ghost". The classes are held in the school parking lot on a large vessel (that is fancy for boat). You will learn more nautical terms than you care to know and you will also have the chance to be the Captain of your ship. The one catch to this class is that you must be willing to work as a team. Make sure you pick shipmates (also known as classmates) that are reliable, strong, and able to pull their own weight. As long as you have all of these traits on board you will most likely pass the class with flying colors.
Still can't decide which blow-off class to take? Click HERE to take a quiz to find out which class would be better for you. Good luck. Well it's time for me to set sail. Ahoy!
