Hail and Unite is back by unpopular demand
Hail and Unite has launched a new website and a promo video. The hype is real! They even have an executive board. It's fitting that this comes on a day when Brian writes about the failure of Dave Brandon. I wonder who served as Louis Elbel's CFO and COO back when he wrote "The Victors."
The hype is real! Help us spread the #HailAndUnite excitement as we head towards our official launch in March: https://t.co/Fs289wxxie

Remember, this is an organic, grassroots movement. It's not about the music. It's about so much more!
(For the music part, they'll just pay thousands to hire a pop star.)
February 18th, 2015 at 11:02 PM ^
What they're full of might well be a movement.

We didn't send her death threats because she made a video about sexist tropes in video games! It's about ethics in games journalism!

Not a single engineer to be found. Just sayin...

Nor music student.

The notion that they "were interested in reaching out to the music dept" was my favorite part of the new Daily article on this committee of shitheads. They've formed a giant unwieldy coalition of asshattery, and haven't reached out to anyone associated with actually making good music.
Maybe this is all part of some secret Ross test. Like their professors aren't exactly encouraging this, but not exactly dissuading them either. And once it gets far enough, the dean will pop out of a bush and yell WRONG MOTHERFUCKERS! BAD BUSINESS ACCUMEN!! NO B-SCHOOL DEGREE FOR YOU!!

If there were more graphic design, advertising, marketing, communication and music majors involved I'd be all for them showing their enthusiasm.
Using university funds to hire someone outside the university is asinine though. This screams management/DB CEO behavior. Do we have people in house with a clue who could complete this project on the cheap? "Yeah maybe but..... these guys are expensive so they must be good"
6 months later..... "Turns out we paid for crap, but lets not admit it, lets just try to push it down people's throats so we're not failures. I mean we're awesome, if you don't agree you suck!".

Wonder how many of those kids are actually from michigan, and how many are coastal trust fund babies that turn ann arbor into their personal playground, heritage and all

Padding the ol' resume through self aggrandizement is a timeless tradition.
When I was at the B-School a small group of students who were very full of themselves decided to sell advertising to local merchants on calendars they would then give away to students. Middle School stuff, about as basic and unsophisticated as it gets.
Their grandiose name for themselves . . . "Strategic Marketing Group". To sell ads on calendars.
I'm sure by the time it made it to their resumes, they co-founded Apple.

Flood their emails with stories of Dave Brandon...
February 19th, 2015 at 7:46 AM ^
They must only show the students, because I have heard that DatBull 4 Life is a main cog in this wheel of annoyance.
February 18th, 2015 at 9:44 PM ^
I think we all agree this is a stupid idea and project. Just out of curiosity though, what should we boycott?

Hmmm... Pretty sure making a Michigan theme song never crossed my mind when I was a student up in A2.
These guys, however, seem determined to deliver on something so trivial.

So they can put it on their resume and during job interviews they can reference this as showing leadership, determination, perseverance, etc.

"Because our parents told us it's a wonderful idea, just like all the ones we've ever had."

Beause they get validation from all the MgoBlog asshats who obsess over stuff like this.
I'm grateful for the fact that these loons have started this project. Not only do i get to laugh at them, I get to laugh at all the mgoblog asshats whining that members of their tribe are part of it, or congratulating themselves that members of their traibe are not.
I can excuse the students who are trying this silliness - they are students and take silly stuff seriously because they aren't adult enough yet to not take it seriously. The mgoblog asshats have no such excuse.
