DISCOURSE 4 Wednesday, January 25, 2012 SPINNAKER // UNFSPINNAKER.COM 4 discourse SPINNAKER // UNFSPINNAKER.COM Wednesday, January 25, 2012 Editorial The political circus is in town, but you’re not invited our old white guys are coming to UNF, but they aren’t professors, Fdonors or grandfathers of incom- ing freshmen. They aren’t lecturing at the University Center, selling kettle corn in Osprey Plaza or even sculpting an obscure piece of art at a random part of campus. They’re coming and bringing hordes of media, supporters and dissidents with them. But if you’re a fee-paying student at UNF, chances are you won’t have anything to do with them. You won’t be able to see them, you won’t be able to hear them speak and you cer- tainly won’t be able to park anywhere near your destination while they’re here. Yet UNF administrators are regarding this as a landmark achievement for UNF – with some calling it the biggest event in UNF history. Sure, it will give the university some na- tional, and even international, airtime – if folks in Botswana are really watching the U.S. Republican debates prior to early sea- son primaries closely. The beautiful Lazzara Performance Hall will be the backdrop, and UNF’s public relations staff has ensured that any camera shot taken on this campus will in- clude the university letters so all debate junk- ies will know where their favorite – or least fa- vorite – Republicans are tearing eawch other a new one this week. However, to say that this will increase the value of UNF’s degree, as UNF President ILLUSTRATION BY JOEY TARAVELLA AND SEAN MURPHY | SPINNAKER John Delaney said in his conversation with the Spinnaker Jan. 23 (inside debate section), the actual live debate in the 1,300-seat Lazzara and themselves, through the headache of amongst protesters of the candidates on might be stretching the accolades a bit too far.
