Funny

Good satire, but the school could 'hurst kids for way less.

Our poll of last night is complete and the results are in: the Moose has been voted an unsatisfactory mascot by 56% of Dartmouth students. Therefore, the members of SA, as the elected leaders of the student body, have chosen a new mascot. From now on, our sports teams will be known as

THE DARTMOUTH KEGS!

Our focus group decided that the keg is an ideal mascot, symbolizing community and sustainable use of resources, both ideals of the Dartmouth way of life. Kegs do not personify any race, sex, religion, or sexual orientation. And kegs reference Dartmouth's formidable social history while at the same time celebrating its intellectual tradition. The Dartmouth Keg is a keg of whatever you want it to be.

We expect this mascot will be well-received. Attached is a free Dartmouth Kegs desktop for your computer, and you can expect to see our new costumed mascot, Keggy, at next week's Homecoming game.

GO KEGS!
