Surprise! Graduation Survey is Lame, Confusing, Will Possibly Screw Us

Surprise! Graduation Survey is Lame, Confusing, Will Possibly Screw Us

Look! I can make a more effective survey than our entire University government!

So because we keep bitching about our graduation being possibly not at Michigan Stadium, and God forbid, at Eastern, the University has taken it upon themselves to create a "task force" to address the problem. The "task force"'s latest project is a survey that's supposed to help them figure out where commencement should be.

The survey is a joke to say the least. Except it's not a joke, because if you answer wrong we might be graduating at Appalachian State or somewhere equally ridiculous. The problem with the survey is that there's no question like the incredibly obvious one I've posed above: Where do you want graduation to be?

Instead, there's a bunch of questions rating how important things like number of tickets, handicapped seating and graduating with your classmates (?) is to you. I suppose these are fair questions, but you constantly have to guess and check your answers. For example, I know my parents are the only people I actually want coming to my graduation. However, if I say that I only need two tickets, oh look at that, I just voted for commencement at Crisler.

The way to get through the quiz and vote for commencement at the Big House is to say you need a lot of tickets, but the most important thing to you is graduating on campus.

Now, one final quiz question:

The members of University of Michigan Graduation "Task Force" are:
A) horribly incompetent
B) deliberately misleading
C) probably all getting luxury boxes
D) all of the above
I think you know the answer.

I'm not sure if too many people saw it or not, but there was a bonus question:

"Would you BTJC?"

F yes I would.

This is EXACTLY what I was thinking when I took it.


As my roommate suggested, why don't we create two new task forces, one to locate Mary Sue's head...and the other to remove it from her ass.

I enjoy low expectations which can be thankfully attributed to Paul (JQ). For other comparisons see: Aaron Rodgers, Scottie Pippen, Pre-Super Bowl Eli Manning, and Rufio.
