No matter which university or college you attend, student governments are preety much the same. They’re comprised largely of proto-wonks looking to have a taste of power, pad their resumes, have their own offices (and office sex) for the first time, make a few thousand bucks while doing so and most importantly, validate their own inflated senses of self-importance.
One of the finest examples of this is Ryan Holt, Vice President of the student government at the University of South Carolina, who is now immortalized in this video of him freaking out because someone had played a prank on him — they filled his office will balloons. “Look at me being serious!” he yelled, not realizing that his rant would be turned into a domain name, lookatmebeingserious.com.

There's something so ironic about seeing a self-important frat boy (after all, student government is just another fraternity if you think about it) throw a temper tantrum in an office full of pretty, colourful party balloons! Where's his sense of whimsy?! I'll bet this dude stomps on flowers and kicks kittens if they get in his way. I don't say this very often, but somebody needs to smoke a joint!
I don't agree with you, Jayme. Balloons are NEVER pretty. NEVER I SAID!!

I passed this link along to my fellow managers... there's always something to learn from watching a pro in action. Hehe.
