Go figure.
Power at any cost
On another front "The Kum-Bah-Yah Chorus" has started.
There is a movement underfoot in Durham for Duke and NCCU to learn sensitivity, understanding. They will learn all they need is love"
They will end in a group rendition of :
Come on people, now
Smile on your brother,
Everybody get together,
Try to love one another

DURHAM -- While much of the news coverage of the Duke lacrosse case has highlighted differences between Duke and N.C. Central University, student leaders at both campuses have been laying the groundwork for closer collaboration in the future................
.........."It was completely student driven," Longoria said of that and subsequent meetings. "It was pretty clear from the beginning that we want to work together."
NCCU students then hosted a dinner at their campus for 25 student leaders from each university. They didn't discuss the particulars of the lacrosse allegations but did talk for about two hours on campus issues generally.
"It took a horrible event to point out the fact that there could be more interaction," Longoria said.
........... Some at NCCU, with its more urban setting, said their counterparts at the more insular Duke could benefit from seeing how the campuses' settings affect students' experience and outlook, he said. ...........
......They talked about further get-togethers, perhaps for athletic and other social events, Longoria said. And they discussed how each school might help the other match volunteers with community service opportunities. NCCU requires its students to perform 120 hours of community service. Duke encourages but doesn't require community service, with some campus leaders arguing that making it mandatory might also make it less meaningful.
"I felt like it was about time that Duke and NCCU met," said Onuma, adding that he's used Duke's library.
"Academically, we do a great deal together," he said. "Socially, there's kind of a divide." ..........
Major barforama.
The whole time I read that article I pictured UGa [Go Dawgs!] and gatech [those damned bumblebees, Swat! I got one.] getting to know each other and learning about their different social habits.
And then I ROTFLMFAO!!!!
