Clark Announces Plan to Move Campus Online By 2019

The University's administration has been so pleased with the new online bookstore that they have decided to move the entire Clark campus to their web domain: www.clarku.edu. These plans are not mentioned during student interests tours as it may give potential applicants the idea that Clark University is an online school. Which it actually now is.

President Angel defended this controversial decision with a statement: “I am proud to say that Clark has entered into the new digital age of education. By transforming the University into a virtual realm of higher education we as an institution are LEEPing into the future. It's time to challenge convention and cut back $30,000 per student!”

Students have begun protesting as this change will affect their daily lives. To appease the student body, the administration has added a virtual reality mode to clarku.edu that allows students to roam a virtual reconstruction of campus through their personal avatar. Students can customize their character, have their character attend social gatherings, and even smoke within 20 feet from the building without getting fined. The University has yet to create a virtual reality system for students participating in the 5th-year masters program.

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.."
