As the majority of the readers on this site will know, college admissions are a painful and infuriating process. Nowadays our society puts so much pressure on us to attend good schools that many of us begin to feel that, should we not get into college, we’ll be living in refrigerator boxes on the street. (Although it was brought to my attention that, if you’re lucky, you could end up being one of the slightly more fortunate homeless people of California that get one of these cool portable shelters. Doesn’t really make you feel better, but good to know.)
Statistically, my class (2009) is due for the worst admissions season yet.
The root of the problem lies in “boom and bust” population demographics. During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the baby boomers generation began to have children and thus created another wave of growth. As this new generation began to enter high school and apply to college, the number of applications began to increase and the number of students admitted decrease.

Everywhere you go people are talking politics.
Who ya gonna vote for?
What is his stance on foreign policy?
Will there be a debate?
Is he qualified?
Can we survive 4 more years with Repubs running this country?
Can the Dems handle this crisis?!
It is time to stop with the party bickering and focus on bringing the government and this country back together. It is time to unify. And nothing unifies people more than good looking men.
So, since you’re gonna be exposed to all these government dudes anyways (they are deciding our financial future as we speak, and are all over the news), you might as well look at the hotties.
(Editor’s Note: We attempted to find some seriously good looking guys in Congress, but that proved difficult. Seriously…most of them are so old. We’re bringing you the best of the bunch. You know, guys we wouldn’t drool over on a normal day…but they have power! And they wear suits!)
These dudes make me want to move to Capital Hill. Some even may make me consider switching parties not totally hating the other party. Click on each picture to get the full story. Read More »
