In a shocking turn of events, a prospective Student Council member had to be forcibly removed from the UChicago campus, after accidentally dropping out of school. The Administration is currently under fire for being blissfully unaware of this student\u2019s situation for the past two weeks.The University\u2019s only comment so far is that \u201ci I was fortunate enough to interview this ex-student, but I am currently unable to release his name due to privacy concerns. He has asked to only be identified by his twitter handle, @theRealDeanBoyer. When asked the reason behind the actions he took, @theRealDeanBoyer stated that \u201cas a double major in both Econ and Computer Science, time became a rare commodity. I wanted to focus my energy on making a difference on the campus, but I made a mistake thinking that the Student Council was the way to do it\u201d. His statement reeked of regret and just reeked in general, since @theRealDeanBoyer has not had access to any shower facilities for the past few days. <\/p>\n The only thing that stunk more than his actual person was his platform. Like every other first-year-candidate, he was puffing steam without understanding what being \u201cstudent council\u201d actually meant. His campaign was modelled after the ever so popular strategies of the 2016 presidential campaign. @theRealDeanBoyer was faring well in the polls until his infamous 3 A.M.\u201dTampon Gate\u201d tweet. It did not matter that no gender was stated in the original tweet, the candidate\u2019s opponent assumed that he did and that was all she needed. The rest of the scandal was political suicide, leaving a gruesome scene that no number of tampons could clean up.<\/p>\n After that segment of the interview, @theRealDeanBoyer became less responsive, suffering from some of the event\u2019s residual trauma. Faint ramblings of \u201cthe letter\u201d and \u201ctrigger warnings\u201d escaped his mouth.
