The end of the semester can lead to a lot of emotional turmoil: changing weather, exam prep, and the infamous group project. Sometimes a student can get lucky and join a competent group of go-getters, but more frequently an assigned group will leave something to be desired.
For her SOC322 presentation, student Kiera Malone was paired up with some of UofT’s less desirable candidates.
The first of these is Kevin Rogers, a Vancouver native and avid weed smoker, who stated that he can not be present on the day of the presentation (April 20th) due to a “religious observance.” The next is Alex Mitchell, whose strict concussion protocol requires sunglasses inside, soft-spoken conversation, and zero use of electronics for the next several months. Mitchell claimed that accessibility services have allowed them to participate in the group project so long as they provide absolutely no assistance to their group members. The final group member, assigned after another student dropped the course, is a literal tuna sandwich.
Malone commented on the nature of the group after their first meeting, stating, “I think I’m going to have to make the entire slide deck myself, but at least I’ll get a snack afterward.”
