... a mission and a mullet. Soon, Curtis Donovan, Steds sophomore and Mullets Against Malaria Commissioner, will have a mullet and direct the hair power of Steds in the battle against malaria. But before the our boys head off to the front, I was able to catch up with this fearless Texan and ask him about the impending showdown with our enemy.
St.Ed: For those who are new to Steds, what is Mullets Against Malaria?
Donovan: Mullets Against Malaria is a charitable event to help support United Against Malaria, an organization that provides nets to in need families in high risk areas for mosquito based illnesses. The nets are cheap so any donations will prove extremely effective and meaningful.
St.Ed: How is Steds using mullets to stop malaria?
Donovan: Our great hall is using the greatest of all hairstyles, the mullet, to raise awareness for those in need of mosquito nets. The mullets help draw attention to our fundraiser where we are hoping to reach a goal of $10,000 this year! This would provide a great deal of relief for struggling families and it is incredible to see the men of St. Edward’s Hall be part of something bigger than themselves. We will NOT stop wearing our mullets until we achieve our goal!
St. Ed: As our commander in the fight, how are you rallying the men to offer their locks to this noble cause?
Donovan: My primary outreach has just been telling the fellas the facts. We have an opportunity to create so much impact by simply getting a haircut. It takes $10 to provide two nets to in need families and the outreach that one haircut can have will raise that with ease.
St. Ed: When you get your mop of hair styled, will it be a mullet, and if so, will it have a name?
Donovan: Of course, it will be a mullet! If my hair can help save lives, I feel like it is essential to donate my luscious locks to the cause. Mine will be named “The Patrick Swayze Effect” because that is the effect that I hope my mullet will have on those around me.
St. Ed: Okay, maybe you can’t say, but do we have any secret weapons in this fight?
Donovan: Last time I counted it looks like we have seven or eight. The higher-ups told me that I can’t disclose much, but the name “John Challenger” and the stylish “Drake Heart” are proving crucial to our battle and I am excited to see the weapons come out to play.
St.Ed: How can others join you and brave boys, maybe not with a mullet, in this fight against malaria?
Donovan: They can still raise awareness through word of mouth and purchase of our incredible merchandise. The expectation isn’t that everyone gets a mullet, but we do hope that everyone demonstrate passion and excitement about the event through their Steds culture. We hope that even those without mullets will send the link to the page and talk about the event with as many people as possible!
Good luck Curtis and all those getting mullets!
