i'll drink to that

Andrea K. reports on the recent BLACK Tea: "A new student organization at Southern Illinois University Carbondale hosted its first function at the Carbondale Civic Center Sunday. . . . BLACK -- Black Leaders Actively Communicating Knowledge -- sponsored its first African American Woman's Tea [in order to] 'bridge the gap between campus and community.'" . . . . Ta-Nika McGee, editor-in-chief of BLACK's bi-weekly newspaper and the organizer of the day's event, said the new organization grew out of a need for a voice to address issues affecting African Americans and other ethnic groups on campus." In a related story, WHITE -- White Honchos Inspirationally Teaching Everything -- sponsored its first Euro-American Guys' Kegger at the Karmadale Communion Room the other night. As a member of WHITE -- in fact, the founding member (about five minutes ago) -- I'd like to invite Ta-Nika for a cup of coffee to discuss effective use of the world wide web to accomplish organizational goals.
