Prospective Gets EMS’d after walking through Wright Boys’ Hallway

Clark University is facing a lawsuit by the parents of prospective student Avi Cato (Potential class of ‘20). The recruit was being shown Wright Hall by resident, and host for the night, Isabela Candbisque, ‘19.

The incident occurred after the recruit simply walked past the male wing on the first floor of Wright Hall. The combined effects of five day old Wings Over Worcester and fungal stink caused her to lose consciousness, according to EMS personnel. Cato sustained additional injuries after hitting her head on the wall on her way down, but was efficiently EMS’d and transported to UMass Memorial Hospital for treatment of a minor concussion, all before 9 pm.

Cato was quick to criticize the University through a post-trip survey. “As a prospective student, I was excited to see the inner workings of Clark University. Little did I know, the first floor of Wright would cut my trip short and send me home with a head injury. I will definitely not be applying early action anymore, and have already planned to request Dodd Hall for residence. Absolutely shocking!”

In an interview with The Slip, Candbisque expressed her regret, “I wish that I had requested Johnson Sanford Center for residence. I hear it smells super naturey there.” When asked about the recruit, Candbisque hesitated before solemnly replying, “I’m glad the injury occurred fairly early, there’s always an EMS traffic jam around 1 am on Saturday nights.”

President David Angel could be reached for comment and released the following statement. “I do hope that the parents of Avi Cato could have attended the Forum on Affordability we had earlier this year. They would know that with deals like this, you don’t need a lawsuit to afford Clark University!”

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
