On a facebook group today (I endorse Barack Obama — and i’m telling my friends!’) I got a huge kick out of reading the wall posts. Does anyone else read these? Like the normal wall on Facebook which I ignore (unless I’m writing on it) I usually ignore the group wall. Like most people, I join any ‘ol group and never return to it. But today I read some of this Obama group’s wall posts (comments?) and I get this incredible feeling like a hundred people crammed into a room who wouldn’t normally be 5 miles of each other began screaming. Factions of budding economists, future senators, and future blue collar dudes all shoved into a shed, crying out at once, shaking the sky.
What follows is a selection of these fantastic windows on the college-aged mind.
