democracyFully nine parties–count ’em, nine–have entered the cosmically inconsequential but strangely fascinating race for Columbia College’s 2010 class council. That’s down from ten last year, but certainly more competition than the class will see in its next three elections. They are: Party of Five, TOGA, Blue Barracudas, Nonstop, The, Stella, Columbia Undergraduates, Supporting Progress, Alma Matters, and Freshman First. Clever, y’all! 

Campaigning starts on Monday, leaving over two weeks for first-years to be approached repeatedly by overenthusiastic student council geeks before the election on October 3rd. Look out for comprehensive coverage from Bwog the whole way!
