Letter to the Editor Dante Alighieri Arthur Dent Jesus Jones Thomas Paine	Losers Loser of the Week This week's Loser of the Week is Vice Principal Sue Haun for having an office so embarrassingly messy that she managed to lose reams of Golden State Exams after directing Victor Gebhardt and Chris Gonzalez to collect the recycling from her office. She then proceeded to blame Interact Club for stealing the tests. Thankfully, the tests were recovered after several hours of sifting through TN's trash and cleaning up Haun's mess. Loser of the Week We know, we know. It happened a month ago. Still, we can't help but congratulate Becky Acuna, Emily Perez, and Teresa Reed for their blindingly pathetic feat of drinking in the yearbook room at the last dance. Old news? Perhaps. Still funny? You bet your sweet ass. Runners-up, and equally asinine: all you blithering idiots who walked out of class last Wednesday for the sole purpose of getting shit-faced in a public place. Way to demonstrate your political awareness. Unfortunately, due to a dearth in email nominations for Loser of the Week, there is no "winner" this week. If you don't like it, do something about it.
