FC.o groups begin to get off the ground
September 16th, 2004 by skyfallerWe’re beginning to see some activity at the new campus groups that we’ve started this fall. The Swarthmore College Phoenix interviewed Desirina at Emory and Rebekah at Bryn Mawr, as well as my illustrious self, about how they got interested in free culture and their plans for their new groups (Free culture movement hits campuses across the U.S.). You can see a few pictures from the third Free Culture Swarthmore meeting of the year below (yes, we were stupid and didn’t bring a working camera to the first two significantly larger meetings).

I wonder why all the girls gravitate towards me?

Marie needed some water to survive this overly long meeting. Our first meeting took about 2 hours, this one took only 1 hour 20 minutes, a 30% improvement! At this rate, we won’t even need to have meetings in a few weeks
Our apologies, we will try to keep future meetings under an hour.

Jeff carries a 2X4 to all of our meetings, just in case an RIAA representative shows up.

Andrew and Nathan raise their hands, volunteering for another perilous mission!

This large stick is much more effective at getting attention than a gavel would be.

I must have said something terribly interesting, look at how attentive they are!

Writing on the whiteboard makes me look stoned, for some reason.
That’s all for now, we hope to have pictures from other FC.o groups in the near future on this blog!

Could we make it a clue-by-four instead? See http://catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/C/clue-by-four.html .

I love the idea of the 2×4
Should come in handy!

Yes, we should have 2x4s on the list of required items.
