Good morning, and oh my god how is it only Wednesday please help me
With the division between Student Congress and GPSF officially happening, you would expect awkward post-breakup emotions to be high in their first meetings since the split. Student Congress, who wanted to work things out, was open to talking about things — like a certain possibly-hypothetical ex from first year who still posts on Tumblr about you even though you haven't hung out in two and a half years.
And graduate student government completely ignored everything about the situation, refused to make eye contact or laugh at Student Congress' jokes and acted as though they'd never even met.
Tag yourself; I'm GPSF.

IN INCLEMENT WEATHER
High school students are not happy with Wake County Schools not pushing back exams due to snow days, and the county's Twitter account has been clapping back. It's everything.
