Student Activities Committee Will Not Recognize Pen Fifteen Club

Georgetown’s Student Activities Commission (SAC) has officially rejected the PEN15 Club’s application seeking official recognition by the University. Because of this rejection, the PEN15 club will be denied a table at the SAC fair, funding from the school, and an office in the Leavey Center.

“Georgetown’s SAC is just not ready for a PEN15 of that size,” a SAC spokesman said in a statement.  In recent weeks, the PEN15 club has made a major push to increase its campus visibility. What had once been a flaccid organization has grown into a strong, bulging prodigious group. Now, students cannot roam the campus without seeing a PEN15 in plain view.

“At one time, Georgetown boasted one of the largest PEN15’s in the country, second only to Howard University’s enormous PEN15,” said a PEN15 spokesman. “By being denied official recognition, our membership has shriveled – the organization has shrunk like a frightened turtle…people laugh at us when they see the state of our PEN15,” he added.

“The SAC obviously envies the success of the PEN15…the SAC is nuts not to accept us, we think that there is some foul play at hand,” said the PEN15 spokesman. “We’ll show them and the whole Georgetown community that size doesn’t matter.”
