Dear UC Irvine Undergraduate Representatives,
I am so excited that you voted to take down the American flag in your lobby. That decision will truly foster the intolerance that this world needs. I cannot wait for your students to graduate and do great things without knowing how to do deal with symbols and cultures they don't necessarily agree with. I mean where would we be without CEOs who discriminate based on nationality or religion? The world is in desperate need of your future politicians who will be too close minded to see both sides of a legislative decision and cause a block. The future military personal who currently walk your halls will be so grateful they went to UC Irvine when they are flown overseas and don't know how to deal with a different culture and governing body. Taking down the American flag was for this reason correct? To prove that instead of being tolerant you should remove anything offensive? I hope you continue this pursuit by also not allowing any team uniforms to show a school logo. Why? Because all the visiting athletes are offended by them. Also, the logo may be a symbol of pride to some students, but what about those who only attend your school because they couldn't afford an Ivy League? How do you think they feel? This is the next step you must take.
Sincerely,
Someone Intolerant
Dear UC Irvine,
You know, we weren't sure if you wanted a cut in funding or not. But now we do. Thank you for making your desire to be a private school known loud and clear. Taking down the United States flag was a great way to get our attention and tell us that you no longer want state funding. After all, that funding is coming from the pockets of Americans. We know you don't really agree with what our nation stands for so we figured you wouldn't agree with taking money from such an oppressive government either.
Sincerely,
The California State Government
(These letters are completely fake and stand to prove to the student government officials at UCI how utterly ridiculous these motions are. UCI is in fact a great university and came out with this statement about the vote: http://news.uci.edu/briefs/campus-statement-on-flying-the-american-flag/ )
