Bells, Detentions, and the Tardy System Invade LSU

How many times did you miss your classes this week? Were you tardy for any of them? Did you happen to talk during class at all?

A thorough survey that never took place confirms the Campus Dirt staff’s previous theory that approximately 92% of LSU’s students are guilty of one or all of the above accusations. When these bogus CD survey results were shown to LSU officials, they immediately cooked up a plan to straighten out these unacceptable student habits.

The plan’s first phase involves the installation of certified hall monitors in every major hallway of every building on campus. Officials guarantee that these monitors will be exceptionally nerdy and thorough as they demand to see hall passes of anyone walking around while classes are in session.

Also, an electronic bell, similar to the bells that signal class changes in high schools across the country, will ring every 100 minutes starting at 6:40 am.

“The bell will be audible from any point on campus,” smirked bell constructor Albert Smot. “Actually, a person walking through the Baton Rouge Airport across town should be able to hear it, too.”

Administrators explain that any student caught still wandering the halls when the bell rings will immediately be ushered to the nearest Dean’s office by the appropriate hall monitor. After receiving three tardies, a detention will be issued.

Detention sessions will be held in Room 150 Howe-Russell every Friday from 2:30 am - 5:30 pm. The rain locations will be either the LSU Parade Grounds or LSU Natatorium.

All students who fail to attend their assigned detention sessions must choose one of the following options to be immediately carried out: having an indisputable “W” added to their school record, hand-copying 5,000 definitions from the dictionary, or having to subtract one point from their cumulative grade point average.

Hoping to be the first local newspaper to obtain a wide range of student reactions to the new disciplinary system at LSU, a team of CD reporters hit the streets and interviewed everyone in sight.

“I don’t go to LSU, so I don’t really care,” quoted Jermaine Drake, a senior at Southeastern University. “And get out of my face. Your breath stinks.”

“Why are you asking me,” inquired Kaycie Wooden, a 53-year-old housewife in Missouri. “I haven’t set foot on a college campus in 30 years, not to mention, I’ve never even heard of Louisiana. This news doesn’t affect me at all.”

Above: Dean Carbunkle takes a moment to "goof off" in front of the camera. Coworkers say that Carbunkle spent the rest of his day sitting in this exact position.

     In related news, there are currently 700 openings for anyone interested in being a hall monitor. Although there is no pay involved, you get the privilege of feeling good about yourself and earning the distrust and hatred of your fellow students. You will also be allowed to wander the halls at your leisure with minimal hassle.

Also, Dean Carbunkle is hiring one person to be responsible for checking all dictionary definitions turned in by irresponsible students. All interested students should submit a completed application and 5,000 hand-copied definitions to Dean Carbunkle’s office by tomorrow morning.

Anyone willing to clock in over 120 hours a week for minimum wage can apply to be the “Campus Bellman,” who will be held accountable for pressing a button to ring the bell every 100 minutes during each weekday. The Bellman must be a student and be willing to work every day with no breaks and no respect.

Any student wishing to appeal a detention or tardy, and/or apply for one of the above jobs should contact LSU Representative Paul Furtshert, who died in a car accident last week.
