V M DAY!


President Gambardella (L) and Vice President O’Brien congratulating 
Commander Smith 

We have victory in our battle against malaria! The power of Steds mullets could not be repelled, and the enemy is now on the run. With the nets that will be purchased through donations, the enemy will cede more territory, and soon, malaria will have no place to hide. So, while the boys are returning home, our fight is not over, the war will go. Indeed, the enemy will see our brave boys and their powerful, magnificent mullets again! But for now, it’s back to the Steds barracks for some R&R and a haircut!

Earlier this afternoon, President Gambardella and Vice President O'Brien received Steds Mullet Commander, Jacob Smith, giving the order to cease operations an demobilize. And as sign of the Hall's gratitude, Smith was promoted to the rank of general. On the successful campaign, General Smith shared, "My dear friends, this is your hour. This is not victory of a class or of any floor for that matter. It's a victory of Steds and Steds nation. We were the first at this University to draw the sword against malaria, but it is with our mullets that we have vanquished this foe.” 

We THANK those who gave their follicles for the fight, but we also must give thanks to all those from who joined us in this fight, monitoring our progress, buoying our spirits, making donations, all of which made this campaign a RESOUNDING SUCCESS, raising $11,226! Whether or not we donned a mullet, today's victory is something that we can all be proud of and celebrate.
