UNITY

Throw a pie, raise some money

After a busy week of papers, tests and projects, most students just want to sleep. But how about relieving your anxieties and stress another way? How about throwing a pie in the face of your professor for just a $1.

You can do just that at the TCUnity Fair.

Sure, it’s important to note that the point of the fair is to raise money to buy phone cards for soldiers stationed abroad. But, this fair is also meant to promote unity on campus.

What better way to bring students together than through their unified contempt for professors and residence hall directors.

Sure, the word “contempt” may be strong, but this is all in good fun and no harm is being done. Plus, it’s a better way for students to relieve burnout than some of the other tried and true methods students often choose.

If you don’t like living in Milton Daniel Hall, throw a pie at Artist Thornton.

If you don’t like the way Student Government Association uses its budget, throw a pie at Brad Thompson. He’ll be there for a full half hour, instead of the normal 15 minute slots.

If for some reason you weren’t happy with the football team this past season, throw a pie at Gary Patterson. Maybe even a football player or two would like to get one “shot” at coach Patterson.

Also, free food is certainly a nice draw as well for cash-deprived students overly reliant on eating meals at The Main.

We also can’t get past the fact that the money raised from this fair will go to buy phone cards for soldiers stationed abroad and their families. Whether you are for the war or not is beside the matter. These soldiers are away from home, and anything that can be done to bring a little home back to them is needed.
