Since noone else could fill in, I have to skip a final review in one of my classes to attend a mandatry programs council meeting. Fun!

Since I expect nothing important or relevant to be discussed, I figured this would be the perfect thing to blog.

4:10 - ussa guy: blahblah don’t sell westmoreland blah. 18mil $’s? “Access” to the university isbeing sold, according to him.

4:14 - OMG Amazon was sold ten years ago! savewestmoreland.com being hyped. 6 min about nothing relevant so far
…Goward intros new staffer from CALIFORNIA (oooooooh)

4:18 leadership resource office guy starts wasting our time…
…hands out fourth set of fliers thus far.

4:21 -13min down the shitter… still not talking about actual things that affect normal students.

4:24 - Announces new “leader of the week award.” We in this room “role model the way for [our] peers,” he says. Makes me feel so good. Announces new “leadership library” and “retreat supply closet” for things like chalk and bandanas. I’m not joking.

4:28 - Finally done. Now actual information from a controller and Goward.

4:32 - Now A. Walsh time. No hat. Wearing UCLA sweatshirt.

4:35 - Now J. Axelrod. Mariners hat… good man.

4:40 - JA describes budget hearing process. Neglects to mention coke-fueled melodramatic grandstanding ending to meetings. “We’re not going to accept late budgets,” bu that’s appealable. Keeps it short and simple though, so kudos to him. Now it’s Goward-time.

4:40 - batteries running low… Goward gives “van training” dates… sounds fun.

4:48 - Postscript - Batteries ran out. Nothing else was said. Total meeting time: 38 minutes. Total minutes of relevant/interesting information: 5 minutes. Total time wasted and not spent working on new issue or study: 33 minutes.
