In a shocking lab report from the Lasry Center for Bioscience, BIO 101 students accidentally encountered something unexpected under their microscopes.

“We were try to study these petri dishes when we noticed something peculiar in one of them,” said John Jimmy Jonathan (‘19), “We focused in on the sample and found a portion of Cajun Shrimp and Rice from the Dining Hall.”

“Who would have known that the Dining Hall’s portions could’ve been so small that they could only be seen under a microscope!” said Jonathan’s lab partner, Dave Doofenshmirtz (‘19).

Sodexo, Clark University’s food services provider, has declined to comment on the discovery, with a spokesman saying only that they were “investigating all possibilities” that were related to the incident.

The implications of this discovery are still being researched, although Biologists at John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland have stated that the discovery of “Microscopic, yet balanced and delicious meals” could be revolutionary in the world of weight loss and dieting. Economists from Yale University also commented that it could bring untold possibilities in cost-benefit scenarios for restaurants and other large institutions.

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.."
