Features Editor STERLING TAYLOR is a sophomore English
major from Daytona Beach, FI. His brief profile should not be
attributed to his lack of accomplishments, but rather to his
supremely humble nature.
International sex symbol
and male underwear model,
TASH joined The Maroon Tiger
as General Manager in the fall
of '98. This junior English major
from Los Angeles, Calif., has a
lot to hide, though. Strung out
on methamphetamines at the age of 10 and in AA by 13, TASH
enjoys writing (suicide notes), travelling (from prison to prison),
and listening to the guitar (to drown out the voices in his head).
Hoo-ray for Hollywood!!!
Better known as "Joe
from Dallas," Sports Editor JOE CARLOS is a senior political
science major from the Lone Star State. An active participant
in many campus activities and organizations, Joe's immense
presence is only eclipsed by his massive number of
connections and his cowboy boots. Need a car? See Joe. Bail
money? Joe.
Presidential pardon?
Find Joe. And, lest we
forget, according to Maria Fletcher, "Joe Carlos is not a poor
man." Texas ... Texas ...Texas ...
Photography Editor SHAUN SPEARMON is a
sophomore marketing/Spanish double major from Seattle,
Wash. He has worked with the Atlanta Journal-
Constitution, and this past summer completed an
internship with the Seattle Times. Spearmon is currently
offering up blackmail pictures of certain school officials in
compromising positions
with cafeteria folk to the
highest bidder. Going once
... going twice...
JONATHAN HOWARD, a junior English/sarcasm major, is
the A&E Editor. Born and raised in Mississippi, he was obviously
deprived of such amenities as electricity, running water and
indoor plumbing. His first taste
of civilization was when Massa
allowed him to go to the "Big
City." Now that he has gotten
fancified and has acquired
some book-learning, the world
is his. Says Howard of his
come-up, "Gooney-goo-goo!"
Campus News Editor FARAJI WHALEN is a junior business
major from Washington D.C. Whalen has had numerous essays
and poems published. He is currently working on a screenplay
of "I'm 'Bout It II: I'm ’Bout It, 'Bout It." He enjoys debauchery,
coonery, crude humor, and Coke — as well as ambush
journalism.
What if the INVISIBLE CYNIC was a mystic gnome of the
Mali-Mali tribe located in the deep, deep jungles of Wyoming?
What if his body consisted of many circles — swirling, ever
swirling? What if he really didn't give a fu#k what you thought
about 20 Questions? Could you handle the truth? What if we
just let Guru Smurf die?
News & Editorials Editor (place name
here) enjoys getting paid ridiculous
amounts of money and living the good life.
You may have seen him on campus
organizing the very first AUC Hawaii Club. Or maybe you saw him
watching cable in his dorm room. In other words you haven't seen him.
What's wrong with you people? Don't you like money? No! No more excuses! We're sick of this!!
