Top Ten Student Myths About The Debate

Top Ten Myths About The Debate:

10-Volunteers will have reporting opportunities.

9-Traffic will begin at 9am, when the entire Hempstead Turnpike is shut down, and last until after Election Day.

8-All the people who don’t show up for class on Thursday, the day after, were really Secret Service agents planted to spy on you.

7-Your best dress shoes are a must for the debate, even if you haven’t worn them in years because of the pain.

6-You will later see most of the interviews you gave to the media.

5-Protesters from the Tri-State Area will take the one, two, or even three hour long-trip to Hempstead to stage a giant demonstration.

4-Commuters who can’t leave campus will be given luxurious rooms to sleep in.

3-There will be free beer all day at the Budweiser tent, official sponsor of the debate. Seriously, I still can’t believe this, even after seeing it!

2-Everyone who crosses the Unispan will be strip-searched.

1-The candidates will tour the campus and meet with students, and not be sped in by armored motorcade.

Just as a side note, this is meant as a humor piece, and is not to be taken as literal fact or criticism (though surely, humor is based in both?)
