With the holiday season fast approaching, some might say already here, Chapman found the perfect way to give the people what they want: filling Memorial Hall entirely with mashed potatoes. When The Kumquat asked how much of the school budget would be used supplying the creamy dish Struppa replied, “A lot.” We pressed the old Italian man further asking him if he considered addressing real administrative faux pas,. He replied “nah. We’re going with Price’s potato thing.” 

“It represents hope most, I think,” said Price when we interviewed him about the plans. Price then left his office to take a call about mold. 

Student reaction has been generally apathetic towards this new initiative. “Yeah this just feels like a big swing and a miss” said Katarina Smith, a junior.

Struppa remains optimistic. “I think the students are really loving it.” he said. “We are not.” said 77% of students. 

But, I’ll tell you this. If the school would like to send out more fanny packs with thermometers, that would be fine by this reporter ;)
