Some background on the cover: The Evil Speaker Luke Farley introduced legislation to Student Congress called the Cap Act, intending to severely limit the funding of Noble Mouthpiece of the Voiceless and Vehicle of Democracy BoUNCe Magazine, among other publications, forcing us to compromise our mission of producing 16 pages of unadulterated satire and selling ad space (see back page). However, Valiant Student Body President James Allred, supported by Dauntless Student Body President-Elect Eve Carson, thwarted Farley’s vile efforts with his mighty Veto, citing that said nefarious legislation would limit the production of two of the best and most loved student publications and also give the editors of the Carolina Review more free time to kill babies and proselytize about the free market. And nobody wants that.


Recoiled and Resprung for your convenience

intro Dogwoods. The smell of spring, not unlike that of female genitalia.

Spring has come and gone, and then returned again, just in time to mock you graduating seniors leaving this Elysian retreat with one last week of weather warm enough to cause half the student body to walk around with half its student clothes on before sending you on your way to some depressing Northern city where the dress code is always business professional, it rains all the time, and the plural form of “you” is almost as sexist as this sentence. Lucky for y’all, yous guys still have 12 pages of this magazine left to read before you have to start learning a hobby to help you survive the monotony of those imminent long, frigid, sexless Northern nights. And, always the obliging magazine, boUNCe has got all kinds of tips for helping you on your way. On page 7, we’ve got an example of a correct usage of the word “putz,” and on page 10, we’ll let you in on the easy way to land that perfect internship. If you are among the more fortunate remaining with us in Chapel Hill, don’t worry; we haven’t forgotten about you. We’ve ventured out into the seedy underbelly of this town to bring you the insight you have come to expect from these pages, such as the origin of those nettlesome, clipboard-toting, donation-seeking environmentalists, as well as the more unpleasant effects of Sakura shrimp sauce addiction. And, like always, we’ve got a whole bunch of random shit, too.
