TIMING	NARRATOR
:60	HI. TODAY, I WILL BE CRACKING DOWN ON A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE, THE COMEDY ACTS BROUGHT TO CAMPUS. LET’S BE HONEST, COMEDY ACTS AT UT HAVE NOT BEEN WHAT MOST STUDENTS WERE EXPECTING. SOME STUDENTS THINK THAT THE PERFORMANCES BROUGHT TO CAMPUS ARE AS DULL AS DISH WATER. ALTHOUGH A FEW STUDENTS ARE NOT LEGALLY OF AGE, OLDER STUDENTS THINK THAT THIS IS AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE ADULTS DOMINATE, THERE SHOULD BE NO BLANK WALLS ON WHAT IS ALLOWED IN COMEDY ACTS. A FEW SECURITY OFFICIALS SAID,
:40	“THIS IS A LEARNING ENVIRONMENT AND THAT THERE SHOULD BE APPROPRIATE ENTERTAINMENT, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NO SET RULES. THIS IS A UNIVERSITY, NOT A PUBLIC COMEDY CLUB.”
:20	HOWEVER, WHEN STUDENTS COME TO COLLEGE, THEY ARE ALREADY EXPOSED TO CERTAIN INAPPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES OR EVENTS THAT WE ALL HID FROM OUR PARENTS IN HIGH SCHOOL. SO UNTIL STUDENTS AND OFFICIALS AGREE ON A MEDIUM, THE DEPRESSING, CORNY COMEDY ACTS WILL CONTINUE TO REMAIN IN THE DUMP. I’M D’MONE’ CLENDINEN, SIGNING OFF.
