Don't worry, we'll set your goals for you
August 17, 2005
Jan. 1 is generally designated as the official goal-setting date of the year. But, as students, we have devised a short list of suggested goals for various groups and people to consider at the beginning of the 2005-06 academic year:
-- To the Husky football team: Win more than one game.
-- To the new ASUW board: Break the cycle -- serve students, not your resume.
-- To the UW administration: Before restructuring the entire undergraduate education system, ask for studen input.
-- To Howard Dean: Do something -- anything -- worthwhile.
-- To President George W. Bush: In preparation for diplomatic talks with Iran, learn how to pronounce "nuclear" (nu-klE-ar).
-- To Kim Jung Il: Quit blackmailing the world with your nuclear power.
-- To Iran: Quit copying Kim Jung Il.
-- To Washington state voters: Don't even think about voting "yes" on I-912.
-- To the UW athletic department: Stay lawsuit-free.
-- To the King County Elections Department: Start counting ballots for the 2008 election. Maybe we'll finish on time.
-- To female students: No more ugg boots!
-- To male students: No more crooked hats!
-- To The Daily: ... Never mind, we're perfct.

The FBI/CIA/TSA/CoS/Emmert is out to get me! I need to stay anonymous!
We're working on a way to allow this. If you have any ideas, email us.
I think this website is ugly.
It's going to be a work in progress all summer, so it may look and act differently from week to week. If you want to influence this process, email us. We read every email, and respond to most of them.
