CAMPUS ALERT!!! PATRIOTS, GET YOUR WHACKIN' STICKS!

Squirrels are taking over our colleges and universities, corrupting students and faculty.
The latest report comes from Kansas State University

I recently moved to the plain's state of Kansas in the hope of escaping the Dred Skwerl. As if doctoral studies weren't daunting enough, I find I must deal with squirrels here at K-State, too. Imagine my horror upon discovering that there are skwerls galore, that they are loved, and that they are made sexual icons!

Kansas State University blatantly advertises its skwerl-luv'n stance on its Traditions page: http://consider.k-state.edu/traditions/lore.htm You will note that they link directly to that skwerl luvr Gottshall.

Not content merely to promote skwerl luv'n, K-state has created and makes available a "Squirrels of K-state" type screen saver. (http://www.oznet.ksu.edu/EdTech/clipart.htm Scroll down to "Download the K-State Campus Squirrels Screensaver"). I wasn't able to watch all the way through because with every shot, I became increasingly sure that the next one would be of a skwerl hoisting up its K-state Wildcat t-shirt to expose its rodent chest. I shudder to think. The horror!

I am dedicated to my studies, and will persevere, but I know that THEY are watching me.

Keep up the good fight!
