Month of Kindness at the U of M
"The Month of Kindness is a University-wide event dedicated to spreading kindness throughout the community. The Month of Kindness will promote involvement in the University community by promoting events from a wide range of student and community organizations."
The nature of the events has given rise to two rival camps: those who participate and those who laugh at the people who participate. I am of the latter kind. Here are two examples of the activities they're doing:
November 29
Student-Athlete Date Auction, sponsored by the Student-Athlete Advisory Council
Bid to win a date with your favorite U of M sports stars! All proceeds from the date auction will be donated to the Red Cross to benefit Hurricane Katrina victims.
Apparently the only people more pathetic than the ones who came up with this idea would be those who actually participate in the auction. High school flashbacks!!
December 3
Kindness Protest, sponsored by Students Today, Leaders Forever
Check out the picture.
Seriously, what the hell are they protesting?
