mock military draft draws 10 students at the u [mndaily]

"as a part of 'peace and war in the heartland,' the re-enactment was meant to promote discussion about the issues facing america's draft-age youth." i'm betting 6 of the 10 who showed up thought it was somehow fantasy football related. don't miss the choice - and cliche - quotes about generation apathy near the bottom. hi panko!

    Everyone was in the room next door that had stacks of free food.

    Here's a tip for the dude, free stuff, college kids will do anything for a free $5 garbage pizza from dominos. Even sit through a lame draft "reenactment", but I bet it was pretty emotional.

    Can you believe they make you set up a will if you get drafted? I didn't even know people died these days.

    But seriously, the kids are probably too busy thinking about what they're gonna do with their $80,000 debt and a liberal arts degree from a state school.

    Anyway, i'm gonna watch sum Kimbo Slice videos on youTube l8tr p3ps
