News of a $100 million donation was well received, with both Economics majors and human beings with souls agreeing that the new Pearson Institute for the Study and Resolution of Global Conflicts would help ease tensions between future millionaires and future happy, but otherwise unsuccessful and entirely unremarkable people.<\/p>\n
Second-year Philosophy major Tatum Adams and third-year Economics major Chet Johnson were excited to hear about the Institute at the RSO fair.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s been a bit of ill-will between people like me and people like Chet, but the announcement of the Pearson Institute has already begun to bring us closer together\u201d said Adams, who described himself as \u201cnot a saint or anything, but someone who thinks about other people once in a while.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a remarkable departure from usual heated discourse, Johnson agreed with Adams.<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, I still think Tatum is pretty misguided for thinking that a humanities degree will contribute anything positive to society, but now I realize that she\u2019s just trying her best, you know?\u201d said Johnson.<\/p>\n
The Institutes\u2019 booth at the RSO fair included informational brochures and pamphlets, including guides such as \u201cHow to Talk to People Who Still Think Communism is a Good Idea Without Being Condescending\u201d and \u201cNot Everyone Wearing Salmon Shorts is a Total Douche, But if You Want to Avoid Them at a Party, It\u2019s Probably for the Best.\u201d<\/p>\n
Both Adams and Johnson plan to attend the Institute\u2019s first peer mediation session in October. Johnson expressed his desire to learn what it\u2019s like to put another person\u2019s needs before his own.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs an Econ major, it\u2019s important to understand why human beings tick so that you can exploit them for monetary gain,” said Johnson. Besides, I\u2019m not a wholly terrible person.
