Anonymous asked: I don't get why we need a site to tell us the things that are public knowledge and accuses people of slandering. The salary list is public since we are at a public school. Julian and Aliza haven't been formally accused of lying. That is a great picture of a penis though. Oh and that vagina as the first post? Real nice. What else is a little unsettling is that the chalking that you did is...

Fact Checking time: "funds were still given to Chabad club, the newly recognized club was able to reserve space"- Exactly, this is the problem. The SGA acted without the signature of Pres M. therefore, with his actions he forced all of the SGA to proceed in a way un-befitting of their own constitution. This...

lukeslog asked: Can I have a shameless guilt -free promotion? I tumble and I go to UVM, it'd be cool to find other people who do the same. I was also the subject of a quote from an anonymous source you posted recently, I thought that was interesting.

Anonymous asked: Dear Little Bird,
This is more so constructive criticism than a question, but it does result in a question of your future choices with how you're going about this. This website has an opportunity to provide talking points with insight coming from anonymity. Your frankness is humorous and somewhat charming, as well. I have much kudos for this. However, your poster campaign is...

Big Bird for Senate!
Senatorial elections are coming up quickly.  And, although we don’t like to tell people who to vote for (we value your own independent thinking), we suggest not only learning where your candidates stand on the issues that you care about, but also writing “Big Bird” as a write-in candidate. If we can get Big Bird to win a seat in the UVM Senate, the impact would be profound.  So...

JULIAN LIES?
Rumors abound that Julian Golfarini, recent winner of the SGA presidential debate, slandered his opponent, Aliza Lederer-Plaskett.  He allegedly told people that Aliza harbored a racial prejudice against President Obama.  Aliza lost the election on Thursday by just 21 votes. Julian, during his presidential debate, asserted that he was a racially diverse candidate with a variety of backgrounds. ...

ALIZA LIES
We have gathered troubling and anonymous testimonies that Aliza Lederer-Plaskett was found implementing unethical actions to gain an edge in the recent SGA president election. She was campaigning inside dining halls and slandering Julian Golfarini’s intentions with Greek life on campus. When Sodexo officials asked her not to campaign inside the dining halls, she left, promptly returning...

Julian Golfarini seizes presidency by 21 votes!
SGA Presidential candidate Julian Golfarini took the UVM presidency by a mere 21 votes, ranking as the closest ever victory (that we know of).  The vote count, when the polls closed today, was 677 to 698.  Had Aliza campaigned for just another hour, or had Julian campaigned for one less hour, these headlines would be staggeringly different. Fewer than 15% of the student body participated in this...

Just a Thought

Fogel Resigns!
UVM President Daniel Mark Fogel has announced his resignation today, followed by a private press conference to which we are still in the dark.  We are not sure why he is resigning, or why it happens to coincide with the first day of SGA elections.  For all the “FUCK FOGEL” graffiti swirling around campus, it’s important to remember what Fogel did for UVM.  In a UVM email to...

DISCLOSURE
The Burlington Police had a luncheon with the students March 22nd in the Davis Center.  We were there to grab some information.  After talking with several police officers (whose names will remain anonymous), we found some information.  -Only about 5% of calls they receive are regarding UVM students. -They really don’t mind the naked bike ride.  In fact, they support it. -It is legal to walk...

Report.
On March 20th, at approximately 7:00 PM, someone triggered the fire alarm in UHeights South.  Ambulances and a fire truck were present.  Over 50 people were displaced outside in the cold.  Some huddled for warmth; others played sports to keep themselves warm until the trucks could be sent away.  At approximately 7:20, the trucks left.

DISCLOSURE
Birds have informed the organization that Redstone Market was being robbed periodically during the night.  Officials and supervisors had no idea how it was being done.  We do. A student in Hamilton had fashioned an impromptu key and was using it at night to break into the food storage room and pilfer snacks and drinks. -a little bird

Rumor has it...
SGA Presidential elections are next week, and Big Bird’s preliminary polls are showing Julian Golfarini as the practically uncontested winner. Our surveys had him winning over 75% of the vote. He’s running against Aliza Lederer-Plaskett, a current sophomore who’s allegedly a complete drama queen inside and outside of the SGA offices. Running for VP is virtually unrivaled Will...
