    Dobelle’s cousin owns a QP factory and gets paid $0.50 per recipient. That’s why.

    Hmm. 0.50 * 2000 students = 1000 dollars.

    I don’t know how hard-up for the business Dobelle’s cousin is but sounds like he’s one of the most honest, reasonably priced vendors Trinity has ever contracted with.

    I’m disappointed. I voted for Dobelle mainly because one of his campaign promises was ending the long national nightmare of endless, annoying QP emails. And now he’s gotten in bed with the powerful and corrupt QP-writer’s unions. This is a slap in the face to the folks who believed in him when no one else did.

    [ominous music] Evan Dobelle PROMISED to end the DELUGE of QP emails, and WE believed him. Did he deliver? NO. In March 2000, Evan Dobelle was seen exiting a meeting with the Union of QuickPost Writers, a powerful special-interests group devoted to flooding the Trinity campus with unwanted communications.

    [more hopeful music] But there’s a chance for change. Richard Hersh will END the QP deluge and bring SERENITY to your inbox. On November 3, vote for Hersh. And UNSUBSCRIBE from QPs.

    Um I don’t think campus drinking and nationwide prohibition are exactly the same thing

    Serious question, why can I vote at 18, die in a foreign war at age 18, own a firearm at age 18, be prosecuted as an adult at age 18, operate a potentially lethal machine at age SIXTEEN, and I can’t get a beer until I’m 21?

    Does that make any sense to anyone who’s over 18?

    I feel like this is the right time to share this link:

    “State report reveals ex-WSU President Evan Dobelle a member of San Francisco’s Bohemian Club, a super-secret, men-only club for the rich & famous”

    A choice quote from this article:

     

    “The Bohemian Club was formed in 1872 and since it’s founding, its membership, though secret, has include some of the country’s most powerful, most wealthy and most influential men.
    <p data-reader-unique-id=”36”>And, apparently, Evan Dobelle.“</p>

    I read a little about Bohemian Grove in Jon Ronson’s book, “Them.” Ronson sneaked in there because he’d been told it was basically Camp David for the Illuminati, and found it to be sort of the Skull and Bones version of an assisted-living retreat.

    I have at least one reason for liking Dobelle—he got involved when the college was treating my freshman roommate very badly—but he has quite an expansive definition of what constitutes proper use of institutional funding, I’ll put it that way. WSU wasn’t the only one.

    I think Dobelle was a good guy generally, I remember the time I interviewed him for the Tripod and he told me at the end to skip class for the afternoon and enjoy the beautiful weather.

    But yeah, not ethical with money at all.
