“Dear President Warch,

“The Lawrentian would like permission to have a reporter present at this week’s meeting of the Board of Trustees. We do not seek to disrupt the proceedings or draw attention to ourselves in any way. A photographer would not be present. We want only for one of our writers to observe the process from a dim corner and scribble notes. “We do not wish to wait for the official university account of the meeting for the following reasons: “1.

Top Ten ways to solve the LUCC presidential crisis.

10. Finish secret plan to transfer all power to the Board of Trustees ahead of schedule. 9. Give away a free toaster with every petition received. 8. GIVE US MORE MONEY! 7. Eliminate bothersome elections; president now rules by Divine Right. 6. President now addressed as “your majesty.” 5. New rule: vice-president won’t have to shine Rik’s shoes; usual apple - polishing now acceptable. 4. Bring back Andy Gussert (“Four more years!”). 3. Put LUCC in hands of administration - they'll dump it off to WPR. 2. Remove metal lid before placing in microwave. 1. Get fraternities to “rush” potential candidates.
