Delusions of grandeur make people run for office; the attraction of stature and the thirst for power, however imaginary that power may be, keeps them alive and moving, much like a vampire bat sucks blood out of sheep. To the thrill-seekers and the deliberating schemers running this year, being Student Body President is not an obligation or a privilege — it's an egocentric reassurance and something grandiose to put at the top of a resume. Not all the candidates are crooked, but that's the way most of them came off during the campaign. It's hard to choose the lesser of two evils; it's even harder when there are six of them. But being a president doesn't mean just sitting in an office all day signing letters or dressing up for fancy dinners with administrators. He has to attend all sorts of boring committee meetings and argue with other, less-important egotists who want to be his successor. With all the headaches and ulcers accompanying the office, it follows that anyone who truly wants the job must be a loony. Psychiatrists claim that everyone suffers some form of neurosis, some people more than others. But wanting to head the Georgia Tech Student Government Association, better knows as "the zoo", ranks right up there with serious diseases like the fear of automatic transmissions, smoking old athletic socks or wearing crotchless underwear to a labor relations class.
