Annoyed by your professor?...COME PIE THEM!

           At any point in our four-five years of college, there is a professor we can't stand. A sense of dreariness comes over us whenever we have to go to his/her class. Well, there is a time for us to all take our anger out. Except here at Utica College, we prefer the positive way of controlling our anger.

           Students lined up to pie a professor in Pioneer Cafe. Around 5:30p.m., there weren't many pies being thrown so students could be pied too. The Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) and Team UC collaborate to host "Pie-A-Professor." "We are always trying to find new and creative ways to incorporate faculty and students," said Danielle DuPree, the Vice President of PRSSA. "It's all fun and we don't want anyone to get hurt."
           Luckily, it wasn't for anger management or it probably would have been overcrowded. "We are earning money for the American Heart Association," said Jessica Mauer, the president of PRSSA and sister of Phi Sigma Sigma Sorority, Inc. She explained this was their way of earning money before the Heart Run and Walk on March 6th.
           Students represented Open Moments, Brothers On A New Direction (BOND) and head football coach, Blaise Faggiano offered to get a pie in the face. "I'm taking one in the face for heart disease," said Kanin Sanders representing BOND.
               There should have been a lot more organizations represented. It's not always mandatory for every organization to show up at every event. But when it comes to volunteer services and support for causes, how can you not show up. Where were the other organizations with 30 people in them. Utica College students want to represent orgs with new hoodies or executive titles, but who actually does the work. Well until the next event, we will see who actually shows up. In the end, we know it will always be the same people. Still, not even for heart disease?
