Come listen to a story about a man named Bob, a
pampered fundamentalist whose terrible at his job.
Then one day while firing Schmeltekopf, oil busted
through Sloan’s laundered money trough. Black gold
that is. Texas T. (banjos echo in the background)
So goes the song that peals from the bells
of Pat Neff, overlooking the Baptist countryside.
It seems that while students celebrated the birth
of their deity by becoming annoyed at relatives
and awaiting an obese man with an eye for small
children, construction workers struck oil on the
Baylor property in Liberty, Texas.
“Man, good thing we sued Governor Bill,”
remarked Larry Brumley, a member of the Sloan
Youth. “We never would have known about the
sweet, sweet reservoir of goodness that lay below
all that dirt. Best of all, we don’t have to feel
guilty about it because we did it out of greed in
the first place!”
Good ole’ Roberto was all smiles as well:
“I can now say without a doubt that Baylor
University, besides being well on its way to Tier
One, is now a solvent institution once again.”
When asked if Baylor had at any point in time in
the past become insolvent due to massive building
programs, Sloan just chuckled to himself, leaned
back in his ostrich leather chair, and lit a Cuban
cigar with a $100 bill.
In completely unrelated news, in a press
conference held in Washington D.C., which has
now been permanently relocated to Crawford,
Texas, President Bush referred to Baylor
University as “the new spokey thingy” in his Axis
of Evil. Later, Donald Rumsfield had this to say:
“The tyrannical regime under Robert B.
Sloan, as the President has said, undermines the
ideals of freedom and decency we, as Americans,
hold dear. There have been rumors that this
totalitarian dictatorship has, for some years now,
been stockpiling weapons of mass destruction and
plans to start a nuclear program from a secret
location they refer to as the ‘Temperature Control
Center.’ No one is allowed into this facility except
those absolutely loyal to Sloan, and they refused
to be interviewed outside of the Baylor campus.
There are also rumors that Dr. David Lyle Jeffrey
is part of an Al Qaeda sleeper cell that infiltrated
the U.S. from Canada. We know that Dr. Sloan’s
election to the presidency was fixed, and we are
seeking a regime change to make sure Baylor can
adjust peacefully to the modern world.”
In order to make sure Baylor does not
retaliate against the neighboring states of
Oklahoma and Louisiana, 20,000 U.S. troops have
been mobilized and are being stationed at Fort
Hood and the Holiday Inn Express off I-35.
Meanwhile, U.N. weapons inspectors posing as
NoZe Brothers have infiltrated the campus and
begun to decode Sloan’s 12 Imperatives, which
sources at the CIA believe very strongly are plans
for global domination.
Sloan and his administrators could not be

Sorority Girl Realizes,
“We Killed the Indians”
University Scholars Program
Lobbying For Membership
In recent campus news, a sorority girl had
an epiphany in the middle of her U.S. History
course. “It was something I had never never ever
even thought of thinking about before,” said the
young lady.
Apparently the realization and moment of
clarity occurred during a lecture about the post
Civil War reconstruction.
“We like, TOTALLY killed the Indians!
Well, not me! But like, my great great great great
great great great great great great grandfather
could have totally like, I don’t know, did whatever
it was that they did to the Indians when they killed
them. Like stoned them or torture racked them
or whatever their medieval ways of killing people
were!” explained the new history buff.
Upon learning that the majority of her late
ancestors were thieving, murdering bastards, the
young sorority girl pretended to cry, purchased a
Tiffany’s bracelet, and watched several episodes
of “Sex and the City.” Reports indicate that she is
almost back to normal and will recover sometime
this semester although rumors persist that she may

wanted to hear, Madden said that it would be impossible to recruit a freshman
class of 2800 next semester without lowering the average SAT score.
This news perplexed the able bodied president, as he was unsure as
to the meaning of words like “next,” “average,” and “verisimilitude.”
Once receiving an explanation, Sloan looked downtrodden.
Apparently one thing Bobby did understand was “the bottom line.” Citing
all the big expensive pretty buildings going up around campus, nearly all of
which will be able to have roofs, Sloan knew that if enrollment didn’t rise,
Baylor’s revolutionary accounting system would be in jeopardy. Becoming
the first university in the nation to run operation costs out of tuition income,
Baylor was breaking new ground unseen since the executive council’s
investigative viewing of “The Crooked E.”
Thinking quickly, then forgetting, remembering, writing it down,
losing the paper, and finding it again, Brilliant Bobby acted post haste.
Tripping over boxes labeled Eileen Hulme: Personal Effects in a blaze of

Once these changes have been implemented, there may be a slight
drop in the average SAT score and overall educational qualifications of the
student body at Baylor. However, Bobby “Wiffle-Waffle” Sloan addressed
this issue at the latest faculty meeting.
“We originally began looking at the SAT’s as a reflector of how we
are doing, because at the time, they reflected the qualities we looked for in
a potential Baylor student. Through the Vision 2012, our standards are
changing, so gone is the value for such guidelines as standardized tests. We

SHARK Van Murders
Campus Squirrel
Gathering Nuts No Longer
Safe at Baylor
Although the animal rights
group SHARK may not have come
up with a clever acronym that justly
summarizes its mission, they
certainly have produced many
examples of bear abuse at Baylor
University, local training facility for
the Republican Party. SHARK
claims that Baylor’s treatment of
Lady and Joy has made the two bears
psychotic.
“We’re not talking about cute
Rain Man crazy,” said Josey ‘Not a
Member of Baylor Freedom’ Wales.
“This is more electroshock therapy
Cuckoo’s Nest crazy. Only by
scouring the Waco streets with our
van equipped with Sony HDTV’s
(available at Best Buy for only
$2,799.99) can we deliver images of
this pain and suffering.”
These images depict Lady
mindlessly pacing in her cage, her
face drooping in a furry frown that
says, “Help me!” or “Can I have
some more Dr. Pepper?” Depending
on your interpretation of the
situation.
But what you won’t see on
those crystal clear back-lit displays
is the truth about these bleeding
hearts and their philanthropic
organization, specifically their van,
dubbed by students as the “The Furry
Fuzzy Freedom Fighter”.
Since the van’s arrival, the
Furry Fuzzy Freedom Fighter has run
over more than seven campus
squirrels while delivering its message
of liberation, leaving the squirrel
community in terror, afraid to come
out of their trees for fear of death by
Goodrich.
“My family hasn’t eaten in
three days,” said Chippy, a frightened
squirrel and victim of the SHARK
organization. “Last Tuesday my
cousin Rochester was crossing the
street to get an acorn. But halfway
across the street, he was frozen in
his tracks by the amazing clarity
those screens produce. WHAM!
They plowed right over the little
guy!”
“SHARK preaches about
saving the Furry Fuzzy Bears,” said
Simon, local squirrel linguist. “Well,
we’re fuzzy and cute! We’ve got our
own Beanie Baby! I’ve read John
Locke and squirrels have inalienable
natural rights too you know. All we
want is nuts. Is that too much to
ask?”
After finally being annoyed
enough to care about something, the
Baylor community also spoke out on
the issue. “This squirrel abuse isn’t
right! These squirrels are peaceful
nut gathering individuals, that ain’t
no lie, and if you don’t like it
SHARK, then bye bye bye!” said a
member of Kappa Sigma, as he
impersonated Justin Timberlake
impersonating Michael Jackson.
Many organizations have
joined the students in aiding the
oppressed squirrel community.
RAPSHEET (Respect And Protect
Squirrels wHo Exist by Eating from
Trees), and AAAROWOCA
(Animals Against Animal Rights
Organizations WithOut Clever
Acronyms) are just two groups who
have brought their own digitally
enhanced vans to Waco to fight for
squirrel rights.
However, some students are
not content fighting only for
squirrels. “What about all the insects
smashed inside the van’s grill?” asked
Kyle Harris, a junior Phi Chi. “Big
brown bears are nice and all, but
when is someone going to help the
wasp?”

Sloan even began to ponder on certain
naughty, suddenly became immersed in the comic institutions and happenings at this university and
“Baby, you were so good
I’m gonna need a whole
carton . . .”
instead of plotting or seriously engaging in these
endeavors, he began to giggle to himself about
how ironical everything is in retrospect. Almost
at once, Sloan leaped onto the administrative
pulpit and began a routine, titillating the
administrators with his comic rendition titled,
“You might be Second Tier if…”
“Well the jokes for my new segment are
like this: If I am your President, you might be
second tier! If people listen to what I say, you
might be second tier! If my vision doesn’t work,
you might be second tier. And so on and so forth.
It’s a dandy!”
Unfortunately, Sloan’s babysitter Herb
Reynolds was laying in wait just around the corner
and ran to see what was the matter the moment
he heard laughter coming from the never jovial
conference room. Looking as if he had just walked
in on his young daughter engaged in an unnatural
act, Herb accosted Sloan and the rest of his band
of hooligans. “Remember your history Bobby,”
explained the somehow still alive Reynolds. “I
didn’t pick you so you could turn my school into
a den of iniquities. Don’t try me Sloan, or I’ll call
another revote faster than you can say ‘dogma.’”
Slowly but surely the laughter faded away
from the ten angry men and women and silence
pervaded for a brief moment. Then all at once,
the meeting again became ridiculously formal,
over-serious, and blandly mundane. Several of
the administrators even silently swore that they
would never laugh again.

Not so many years ago, there
was a medium sized Baptist
University, whose student body was
so excessively fond of appearances,
that it spent all its money in dress.
The university did not trouble itself
in the least about its faculty; nor did
it care about student events, except
for the opportunities then afforded
for displaying its piety.
Time passed merrily in the
small university; strangers arrived
every day at Pat Neff. One day, a
rogue, calling himself Bobby, made
his appearance. He gave out that he
knew how to weave 10-year visions
of the most beautiful colors and
elaborate patterns, the actual
improvements manufactured from
which should have the wonderful
property of remaining invisible to
everyone who was unfit for the office
he held, or who was extraordinarily
simple in character.
This stuff must be done
immediately! Exclaimed the
university. And it caused large sums
of money to be given in order that
they might begin their work directly.
So the pretended visionary
set up a Vision 2012, and affected to
work very busily, though in reality
he did nothing at all.
“I should like to know how
the President is getting on with the
improvements,”
said
the
Administration. To be sure, they
thought they had nothing to risk in
their own persons; but yet, they
would prefer sending somebody else,
to bring them intelligence about the
visionary and his work, before they
troubled themselves in the affair. All
the people throughout the university
had heard of the wonderful property
the vision was to possess; and all
were anxious to learn how wise, or
how ignorant, their neighbors might
prove to be.
“I will send my faithful old
provost to the visionaries,” said the
university at last, after some
deliberation, “he will be best able to
see how the vision looks; for he is a
man of sense, and no one can be more
suitable for his office than he is.”
So the faithful old provost
went into the campus, where the
president was working with all his
might, at the empty plans. “What can
be the meaning of this?” thought the
old man, opening his eyes very wide.
“I cannot discover the least bit of
improvement.” However, he did not
express his thoughts aloud.
“Is it possible that I am a
simpleton? I have never thought so

myself; and no one must know it now
if I am so. Can it be, that I am unfit
for my office? No, that must not be
said either. I will never confess that I
could not see the stuff.”
“Well, Sir Schmeltekopf!”
said the President, still pretending to
work. “You do not say whether the
stuff pleases you.”
“Oh, it is excellent!” replied
the old provost, looking at the
campus through his spectacles. “This
pattern, and the colors, yes, I will tell
the university without delay, how
very beautiful I think them.”
“I shall be much obliged to
you,” said the president, and then
named the different buildings and
described the improvements in the
quality of education. The old provost
listened attentively to their words, in
order that he might repeat them to
the university; and then the president
asked for more gold, saying that it
was necessary to complete what he
had begun.
The whole campus was
talking of the splendid future which
the president had ordered to be
made.
And now the students wished
to see the costly manufacture, while
it was still in the makings.
Accompanied by a select number of
students, among whom were the two
honest men who had already admired
the vision, they went to the crafty
president, who, as soon as they were
aware of the student’s approach,
went on working more diligently than
ever at nothing.
“If you will only be pleased
to look at it! What a splendid design!
What glorious facilities!” they said,
and at the same time they pointed to
the empty land; for they imagined
that everyone else could see this
exquisite piece of workmanship.
“How is this?” said the
students to themselves. “I can see
nothing! This is indeed a terrible
affair! Am I a simpleton, or am I unfit
to be here? That would be the worst
thing that could happen—Oh! The
Vision is charming,” said they, aloud.
“It has my complete approbation.”
And they smiled most graciously, and
looked closely at the empty effects;
for on no account would they say that
they could not see what two before
them had praised so much. Thus
there would be an unveiling of the
Vision 2012.
The president sat up the
whole of the night before the day on
which the unveiling was to take
place, and had sixteen lights burning,
so that everyone might see how
anxious he was to finish the vision.
“See!” cried he, at last. “The Vision
2012 has come to fruition!”
“How splendid the university
looks in its new buildings, and how
well they fit!” everyone cried out.
“What a design! These are indeed
Top Tier buildings!”
“I am quite ready,” answered
the university. “Does my new vision
fit well?” asked it, turning itself round
again before the looking glass, in
order that it might appear to be
examining its handsome vision.
So all the people standing by
cried out, “Oh! How beautiful is our
university’s new Vision! What quality
of teaching and research!” In short,
no one would allow that he could not
see these much admired
improvements; because, in doing so,
he would have declared himself
either a simpleton or unfit for his
office. Certainly, none of the
university’s various improvements
had ever made so great an
impression, as these invisible ones.
“But the university hasn’t
changed at all!” said a little child.
“Listen to the voice of
innocence!” exclaimed his father;
and what the child had said was
whispered from one to another.
“But the university hasn’t
changed at all!” at last cried out all
the people. The university was
vexed, for it knew that the people
were right; but thought the vision
must go on now! And the lords of
the university took greater pains
than ever, to appear holding up a
vision, although, in reality, there
was no vision to hold.
Visitors Lots Safer Than Ever, Says Doak
Violent Crime up 112% in Business School Garage
At a recent press conference held on
the roof of the Business School parking
garage, home base of the Baylor DPS, school
of social work, and any other bastardized
program Baylor wants to relegate to a position
of permanent inferiority, big chief Dim Joke
announced triumphantly and emphatically yet
another victory over evil.
“I am here today to proclaim all across
this land that my Baylor Department of Public
Safety has finally rid our blessed home of
any and all remnants of depravity and
injustice,” beamed the big Joke, “No longer
will you have to cower in your homes afraid
of what you might encounter on my campus.
No, no. Come out of your homes and walk
this hallowed ground. Today we are all free.”
Asked to repeat himself after no one
actually heard the above comment over the
noise of little girls setting speed records in
their big trucks while trying to get home in
time for Oprah, Joke instead gave up and
handed out a press release that explained the
Departments hard-fought victory over
iniquity.
According to the press release, illegal
parking in all visitor and 15-minute spaces
has been reduced by 98.6% in the past two
years. In addition, revenue from the DPS has
increased an estimated 98.6% in the past two
years.
If anyone could have heard him, Dim
Joke most likely would have continued as
such: “You see, what we’re trying to do is
make this place safe for the visiting folk. I’ve
never been a visitor, or met one, but I can
imagine that it would be really annoying to
come all the way to Baylor and not be able to

One such special force is SUB visitor
lot guard/hired-gun Petty Officer Bunt. “I
used to work for Long John Silver’s, but now
I sit in a chair and write tickets for students
who just need to run into the SUB or Pat Neff
for a few minutes.” Bunt continued, “It’s just
nice to know that I’m making a difference,
and when that day comes that I finally meet
someone honestly visiting this campus, all my
many hours of sitting in that chair will finally
have paid off.”
Despite the assurance of safety by Dim
Joke, many students aren’t convinced of the
security around campus. An independent
study conducted by word of mouth found that
a majority of the student body thinks the DPS
is a complete joke and doesn’t do anything
but harass students in order to pull in six figure
sums in parking fines.
“Yeah, pretty much,” said Waco
sophomore Laura Fitzsimmons.
Other students provided very personal
accounts of their dealings with the DPS. “I
can remember when my stereo was stolen out
of my car on the second floor of the business
school garage,” said Dallas senior John
Ratinbutwalis. “Of course, when I went and
reported it to them, I had to park in the visitors
lot and I got a ticket, but they’re just doing
their job. I’m sure that if my stereo were to
get stolen again they’d find it or something.”
Asked about the students’ accusations,
Joke’s comments were inaudible over the
sound of breaking glass and car alarms, but
they probably would have gone something
like this: “We’re just doing our jobs the best
way we know how. We have some leads in
all of the various tire slashings, break-ins,
armed robberies, car jackings, murders, etc.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I have some empty
shoe polish bottles to log into evidence.”

The Ones That Got Away
As another spring semester began yet
again, the Baylor populace looked back on the
memories of yesteryear. For it was during the fall
semester that Baylor had been graced by the
presence of the Jolly Black Giant of Comedy, Bill
Cosby. Famous for his work in such classics as
Leonard, Part 6 and his love of good pudding, it
was no wonder that Baylor invited William H.
Cosby Jr, or Bill as his friends call him, to speak
on behalf of parent’s everywhere.
His insights were keen as he spoke openly
about his love of the Baylor Bear…the bear of his
people, he claimed, and the tragic loss of his left
love nut to the cause of his daughter’s wedding.
Such blunt comments stunned the audience who
were more attune to the comic stylings of Gospel
Ventriloquist, Diana Williams.
“I didn’t quite understand what he was
doing,” said Baylor Regent, William H. Brian, age
84 and self-proclaimed 14th oldest fan of Strom
Thurmond. “He wasn’t singing. He wasn’t
dancing. He just kept jabbering all crazy like a
chicken with its head cut off. Metaphysically
speaking.”
But the fun was not to stop there. Cosby’s
comedic act had then been followed by the
appearance of the Ernest J. Gaines, author of such
classics as Cliff’s Notes: A Lesson Before Dying.
When asked about this second influx of celebrity
into the Waco community, Natalie Wood, local
counsel woman could only say, “Oprah made me
do it.”
So as the students returned to campus,
they looked forward to another taste of comedy
and culture. But when they went searching, all
they found were empty pudding cartons and very
slightly used books. It was then they realized the
shocking truth.
Bill Cosby and Ernest Gaines had left
Baylor.
The next day as Boss Hog Sloan sat in his
rocking chair on the porch of Pat Neff, he was
shocked to see an angry mob baying for justice to
be had on these runaways. Normally, such unruly
lynch mobs would be allowed to roam free, finding
scapegoats at will, but the presence of one lone
freedom fighter stayed the vengeful hand of the
Big Boss Man.
Bro. Obi-Wan KeNoZebi called to the
crowd for peace. A problem of such Uncle Tom
proportions could only be solved in a manner
befitting the situation. Quickly the mob relocated
itself to the steamy wooden courtroom of the local
Waco Court House. Many a young woman sat you ask? Bro. Huey P. NoZeton, resident militant

BAYLOR MISPLACES JESUS
Also Forgets to Put “I” Before “E”
Earlier this week, much to
the dismay of Baylor officials and
fundamentalists, Jesus reportedly
escaped from his holding quarters in
the basement of Sloan’s golden
phallus, Pat Neff. The Savior, who
for the past some-odd years had been
kept in a neat, orderly cage with all
the comforts previously afforded to
Judge Chance (parking cone, tire,
log, pile of fecal matter), was
rumored to have eluded his captors,
as there were subsequent reports and
sightings of The Big J across Waco.
Befuddled at the immortal

with anxiety over the possibility of

Tempers began to
flare among law enforcement
officials as repeated false-sightings
were reported again and again in the
community. Baylor freshman Jenny
Taylor lamented her story to us:
“Well, I guess it all started
when I stood up at Highland Sunday
school last weekend and told them
that I had found Jesus. It seems there
was an undercover agent in my class,
and I was immediately
arrested on the spot and
taken to the fellowship
room to be questioned.
They asked me where I had
found Him, what time of
day it was, and if He had
approached me, or I Him.
I then got grilled as to
where He had been hiding
and how it was that I knew
where to look for Him
when they had no idea. Are
those people really as
stupid as they seem?”
Multiple other
bogus reports seem to have surfaced
during the Son of Manhunt.
“All these dumb kids keep

Toyota 4Runner Found To Be 110% Kappa an Impossibility,
Physicist Says
Fastest Car At Baylor
In an event that released shockwaves through the Baylor campus
last week, a new champion was crowned in the Speight Plaza Parking
Garage. Tori Kramer, a female sophomore who “was not invited back” to
Pi Phi’s parties during rush, crushed the competition and laid waste to the
record book as she and her 2002 Toyota 4Runner with the gold package
and leather interior achieved the highest speed ever recorded in a parking
facility at a Baptist center of higher education in Waco—a whopping 53.724
mph. Though many have attempted during their time at the Unifarcity to
accomplish such a feat, Miss Kramer saw past her competitors and realized
her dream.
The old landmark of 53.723 mph recorded the day before by a Kappa
Sig running a bit late to Small Group Communications is now located in the
lost annals of history as Tori has asserted herself as the new person to be on
the watch for while parking your vehicle. Tori actively encourages others
to pursue their dreams and listen to their hearts so that they too might
exceed a reasonable speed in the parking garage on their way to nirvana,
neglecting the safety of others and staying focused on the goal at hand.
On a sad note, Baylor DPS officials were not present to witness the
watershed event because they were occupied timing to see if those parked
in the “15 Minute Only” spaces were really only there for less than or equal
to a quarter of an hour.
Drunk Guy Chooses Middle
Urinal
This past weekend at a local Waco establishment known as Scruffy
Murphy’s, out of three possible urinals, an extremely intoxicated patron
chose to urinate in the urinal directly in the middle of the urinal
conglomeration, much to the surprise of another intoxicated patron, urinating
in the urinal directly to the right of where the other intoxicated urinating
patron chose to urinate.
“Well at first I was hoping he didn’t see me,” said the distraught
patron, “But when he struck up a conversation and asked me how my night
had been, I felt pretty violated.”
Apparently, this particular intoxicated patron has also been accused
of drinking after complete strangers, farting in public, and lacking any
significant amount of tact whatsoever. Students are advised to watch for
this patron in every bar in the entire world, or in the mirror.

The Greek world was shocked Tuesday after irrefutable evidence

“Help us,” was all that Stephanie Bloomfield could muster when
confronted with the situation at hand.
“It started innocently enough,” said Bro. NoZeanderthal, resident

when I noticed a banner saying 110% Kappa Kappa Gamma. I thought to
myself, that’s not right. So I pulled out my old High School textbooks, and
what do you know, I found the truth.”
After intense research, Bro. NoZeanderthal found that there can
only be 100% of any given thing, therefore debunking the Kappa Kappa
Gamma slogan.
“It’s strange,” said Bro. NoZeanderthal. “The entire time I was
testing my theory, all I could think of was how much Bro. Obi-Wan KeNozebi
would get a kick out of this. Too bad he was nowhere to be seen when I

satire. Of course, now that the article cannot be completed, the opposite
will most likely occur.
Nonetheless, the article below contains many jabs at all the folly
that is Baylor and will no doubt be something you will want to show your
children, or frame, or perhaps just use as toilet paper.
So you want to be a NoZe Brother?
Then why not
Unrush will probably be held on Thursday, February
6, 2003 at imprecisely 11:17 Past Milk in front of
Seventh and James hardly Baptist church. Potato
salad will be served. Be regaled by our wit, or don’t.
We don’t really care. Bring money if you like, and as
always bring a date and don’t come!
Unrush?
Paper pickup will happen on Sunday, February 9,
2003 at or around 6:47 Post Mortem at the Burleson
Statue at beautiful Baylor University. Satirical submissions of questionable quality will (reluctantly) be
accepted at this time (i.e. you have to do this if you
want to be a NoZe Brother). Please remember that we
sometimes read these so try to not use the teats, the
piddle, or the ca-ca. Submissions must also be 10,673
words or less (hopefully, much less). Oops, I almost
forgot one thing…BE FUNNY this time!
