What the...!?!? I refuse to let my 16 yr old watch this crap and this just blows my mind.
Question: Who's worth more as a college speaker - Jersey Shore star Snooki or Nobel-winning Toni Morrison?
Answer: Snooki!
That's the deal at Rutgers, reports NJ.com. The Rutgers University Programming Association paid Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi $32,000 Thursday to offer important advice on her hairstyle, fist pumps, as well as the GTL — gym, tanning, laundry — lifestyle.
And that's $2,000 more than the $30,000 the university is paying Morrison to deliver Rutgers' commencement address in May.
The Rutgers University Programming Association paid the reality star using the mandatory student activity fees. Gregory Kassee, vice president of the association's comedy and movies committee, said the group was looking for a speaker who would appeal to Rutgers students. And that proved to be true.
Fat ing mess.
Leave those educated ones alone. They know better.
Is it possible this is a misunderstanding and that 32K is actually a bounty they're offering on her orange little head?
Who cares? She's being smart by capitalizing on her limited window of fame. That's just smart bidness by the orange leprechaun. Because, lets face it--The Shore will only be on for so long and then she'll be back to Guido Purgatory, tbh.
I really dislike rewarding people for outrageous behavior, but I dislike those who gobble it up even more.
But that being said, I think this situation would piss me off only if they were paying that orange blob to do the commencement address, as they are Morrison. It seems like 2 different events to me, one is entertainment being put on by the "movies and entertainment committee" and the other is their commencement. As lame a form of entertainment as it may be, students can choose whether or not to see Snookie. Universities sponsor events for entertainment and/or enrichment all the time, it would be up to the students to demand better quality choices.
It's only worth it if she gets punched again while giving the speech.
I know you have to cash in while you can but damn.
No jury in the world would convict. Just say it was a fist pump gone wrong.
I think the pay is fair. Toni Morrison is boring as . Snooki is at least a little exciting, what if she drunk dials during a speech? See what I'm saying! Toni Morrison would just talk about blackness and ing ghosts.
The next Jersey Shore is taking them to Italy. Can't wait
Unless they are paying her to commit suicide on live television, I don't care.
JS sucks.
This country is a in mess..
Who the is Toni Morrison? Jersey Shore is the greatest show on earth btw.
I think Jersey Shore is hilarious and watch it regularly, but you'd have to pay me to see Snooki (or any of the other housemates) speak. Can't imagine it being anything other than painful.
If one penny of tuition fees goes to this association, as a student I'd be more than pissed.The Rutgers University Programming Association paid Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi $32,000
