To the Scholars, All Our Best
We congratulate Northern Alliance members SCSU Scholars on the one year anniversary of their fine blog. It’s hard to believe they’ve been covering the education/culture beat of St. Cloud, MN for an entire year. If only because we find it hard to believe there is any education/culture in St. Cloud, let alone enough material to write about for an entire year. But it turns out there is and the Scholars have consistently provided interesting and amusing commentary.
Earlier, King wondered whether or not we forgot about their anniverary. I assure him that’s not the case. Our grand celebration in your honor is proceeding as we speak (the fireworks portion of which apparently startled our jittery neighbors in the surrounding neighborhoods). I was going to wait until after the raucous midnight countdown to send your our official compliments, but since you can’t wait, I'll jump the gun and offer you our warmest personal regards at this time.
Way to go Scholars. Maybe someday you’ll explain to us what’s up with that plural form of “Scholar” in your title. Seems to me only one person ever posts anything. Perhaps King has a team of graduate students doing all his posts and in lieu of payment, that’s how he chooses to acknowledge them. Or maybe “King” is actually some abstract Betty Crocker-like creation of an advertising agency, focus group tested to appeal to their target market (35 - 55 year old economics professors). Whatever the case, it’s clearly working. Keep it up gentlemen (or ladies, for all I know).
