CalStuff Gossip
Another new CalStuff feature - a round-up of any interesting/hilarious campus occurrences not quite significant enough for their own posts. For those of you who know me in real-life, don't worry, I'm not going to be reporting on your little foibles on CalStuff. In fact, if I learn anything that I think would be worth publishing, I'll ask your permission before I include it on CalStuff.

1) Tsunami Humor
Apparently the weather got the best of the little white tent that had been set up on campus as a part of Happy Fun Tsunami Week, and a particularly large gust of wind blew the thing over. At that point, a random passerby screamed "tsunami!", causing a nearby ASUC senator to begin laughing at the spectacle.

2) ASUC Slating Mumbo Jumbo
We've been getting word over here at CalStuff central about slating decisions by Student Action and CalSERVE, and we'll be bringing you more details on that shortly. Multiple sources have informed me that CalSERVE has slated current ASUC Senator Dena Takruri for President. I spoke with Takruri and she offered a half-hearted denial of the report, claiming that "the CalSERVE slate is not finalized yet". This is definitely the rumor on campus (even SA people say they have been hearing it), but it could just be a big mistaken rumor, or some sort of disinformation campaign put out by CS.

Which brings to mind the question, is there a reason to start a false rumor like this? Perhaps SA did it to make the eventual candidate seem worse by comparison (this stipulates they hold Takruri in high regards), or maybe someone is doing the opposite to make the eventual candidate look good in comparison. Or maybe it's just a trial balloon to see how her campaign would go over. Once the slates have been officially announced, CalStuff will have all the details.

3) Rocky's Legal Woes
Apparently Rocky Gade may be technically ineligible to serve as AAVP, but the intricacies of the legal case aside, does anyone else find it ironic that our Academic Affairs Vice President is a fifth year Extension student. (Cheap shot at both Rocky and Extension students, but still funny enough to go with...)Email This Post!
