Spring Carnival Committee found dead in office
The CMU community is in shock after the discovery on Wednesday morning that all of Spring Carnival Committee (SCC) has died. An FMS maintenance worker discovered their remains in the SCC office on the third floor of the UC, and autopsy reports state that they had likely been dead for weeks. While students and faculty are mourning the loss of several upstanding members of the CMU community, they're also relieved to have an answer as to why so many delays occurred during preparations for Booth. "SCC was so slow to put out the form for booth chairs," one student stated on Midway. "If I'd known the directors of Booth were skeletons lying on the floor of the UC, I would've been fine with the delays. They just need to communicate better."
The cause of the numerous deaths is still unknown, but there are some clues. Some orgs suspect foul play, especially in light of recent tensions between SCC and SDC over their suspiciously similar names. Others suspect a gas leak, which may explain the increasingly confused actions SCC took in their final hours, perhaps reflecting a gradual loss of consciousness due to asphyxiation.
Nevertheless Booth will continue, though further delays can be anticipated. Students took the opportunity prior to move-on to mourn the loss of SCC, as they waited half an hour past their scheduled times to be allowed onto Midway. CMU is urging students to remove their hard hats out of respect, and to drown their grief in copious amounts of alcohol during Carnival.
