(Short) College Life

College Life will be short. Proper and beaurocratic, students will cringe at its mission statement: "issues of interest to college students and those in their 20's". Make up your mind. You can't have two large groups; only one. College students or those in their twenties? The phrase "editorial focus is politically what is best for you" doesn't only hurt my ears, but is a surefire offense to any students. Students don't want to hear "what is best for you"; that's exactly why they've left to college. Noticing all the comments that have been removed by a blog administrator, the blog is off base with its visitors. Of course, these removals occurred at a posting about fraternities. Not an "issue of interest". The posting about ISSUES VITAL TO YOU OVER NEXT 2/20 YEARS seems ill placed. Again, make up your mind, 2 or 20. Which is it? Is it between 2 to 20 years? How did you figure this one out? In POLITICAL: VOTE DIVIDED GOVERNMENT, College Life (the curious name of the author, what are you afraid of? You won't give us your name and you want us to read your article?) rambles on about pork barrel politics. Rather than "issues of interest", shouldn't College Life be about college life?
A message to all sincere bloggers too earnest for their own good: stop using the royal we. Stop pretending. WE know its just you contributing to your blog.
