The day they took down our flyers for a campus debate

Last semester at my state school, a student group put up posters for a debate on tuition costs. Campus staff removed them all, saying they needed 'prior approval' from an office that takes three weeks to answer. It felt less about rules and more about stopping the talk before it started. Has anyone else seen a simple event get shut down like that?

Does the approval office also need three weeks to decide what to have for lunch?

That "three weeks to decide" line from @mila_lopez27 is too real. I swear they have a whole separate meeting just to schedule the meeting about the lunch options. It's always the same three places, too.

The "same three places" thing is so true. What are the usual suspects at your office? We always get stuck between the overpriced salad place, the bland sandwich shop, and the pizza that gives everyone heartburn.
