'Party in the UGA' video brings great shame to college, graduates, everyone

Posted by Thomas Wheatley on Wed, Aug 4, 2010 at 3:37 PM

Be strong, my fair alma mater. Hopefully the fallout from this incredibly awkward freshman orientation video will be over soon.

As Deadspin noted, the video is "clearly a 50-year-old woman's idea of what 18-year-old kids find cool, and how to relate to them." If not, well, then I worry for this generation.

Do you think this video made UGA the Princeton Review's number one party school?

That's totally not what I was expecting to see when I read the tweet.

Much more embarrassing than the gentlewoman from Florida Corrine Brown congratulating her "gata".

Thomas: Wow, so sorry to learn that you're a UGA grad. Condolences. Please don't say you're a HOPE scholarship baby, avoiding paying anything for your undergrad years, edging out others from underserved neighborhoods in the state, with your college education paid for by low-income African-Americans playing the lottery. If so, you need to write about that in an upcoming column. That said, there are so many more mediocre flagship state schools--can anyone say University of Florida?--across the US, so fear not! We still love--and need--your brains in the ATL!

Look at the 1:22 mark, the book is upside down! Can't believe they call it a "university." That title is reserved for places of higher learning, not partying and trashing your own damn campus!
