Letter To the EOllOll Dear Editor Re: Editorial "It's Your Decision" Without question there is no better use for the $5.00 Cap and Gown fee than for the Cap & Gown. After all, this is similar to other fees related to the attaining of a degree application, tuition, room and board, schedule changes, transcripts, and so on. Nonetheless, there is a fund which should be established and so many who should get into the act will only stand and watch the parade go by.

Well that's sweet, and its also a normal predicament for all us students on and during registration day. You go in there and you have about two minutes with hundreds of other disenfranchised students, to make a simple decision on your life. It was suggested by a fellow drone while we were standing in line, that if you don't get a course they could at least tell you what course you didn't get. This way, registration wouldn't be as disturbing as it is, that's just on the surface though. See you simple fuck, its an error in your head, Slim Slygh, this school, and today's society does not make mistakes. Everybody knows that we the stud-drones are here to serve the machine (Sieg Heil). Regardless, ain't Slim cute when he's efficient. So we all did our comic phoney duck scene of registering for our education, well that's the way I view it anyway. I did have the fortunance to rap to a few fellow studs who asked me, "Well what degree are you working for, what are you going to be, a BA, BS, or a BU?" I proceeded to discuss some more cosmic relationships, and this stud asks me about degrees. It seems that Slim and his cronies have really sucked some peoples' fine minds -- now they're just the amerikan idea of niggers (white or otherwise, no squirrels admitted). "Mein furher, this young man does not haf his papers -- Vhere are your papers mein schmuck?" "You do not haf your papers in order, well you must go to the end of the line, a gas chamber is vaiting for you, See you in Auswitch, the great fire oven in the sky -- Sieg Heil!" "Sieg Heil Mein Furher!" So some funky assed commander puts someone at the head of the class, and you know, its always slim pickings on the way down, way down in the heart of your educational brain, locked, and put under key. And then its very obvious to see that no one give a fuck about education in this god forsaken hole. Experiencing registration is a joke, its not real, but the most disquieting fact of the matter is, that it is real.

I guess that told me, but that dude-fuck is really interfering with my education, while all the while giving me a new one; I just look under his surface. Some good theatre might have been to whip a can of blood out and shot the bastard, the pagan bastard. So this guy is only adding to my nightmare, and to further relate our mendacity (or the systems), we're gonna really relate to this paper illustion, we're going to get into the Drop-Add dazes. Its just more paper and nothing else. Only if you could only shove that paper and save a tree, Halt the machine, I want to get off. Then slinking down to the bathroom, cop me a stall, whip out this pint of Rye Whiskey, take a little hit ... Zow! What a rush! Returning to the inner-stellar hallways, dissolution is rolling through the Isle of Man, or at least through the hallways of your brain; in thirty-three and a third, no less.

Uncle Slim trucks by me, sweating underarms swollen in bureaurocracy, Sieg Hell! Ole Slim, he's cool and regardless, only gettin' a little red in the face; But I'm not here to blow Slim away, he's just doin' his job. Maybe he could go a little easier on his health, sit back and take a simple suggestion; There must be a better way. I mean, man what are you doing, what are you perpetuating, what are you creating, why are you destroying the right to free education, why are you closing the door to the light, why can't registration be a three day trip into understanding. There's got to be another way cause this other way only puts people uptight, disatisfied, and aborted. Regardless, one flew east, one flew west, I went on over the cuckoo's nest with McPatrick, and we left Big Nurse with all the rabbits for a good Irish Drunk . . . this is the hangover.
