This article is about a ceremony which "spoofs" or makes fun of the Nobel Prizes held every October. Harvard students and very respected professionals in their fields get together and invent things that are spoofing awards and inventions that the real Nobel Prizes are awarding. One of the inventions was a gas mask bra, another was an invention proving that cows with names produce more milk.
This is news because of the oddity of it. You wouldn't expect professionals to make fun of such a classy ceremony, you'd expect them to want to be apart of it. But it's good that they can have a sense of humor about it and give the college students some entertainment. It doesn't really effect anyone, it's just a story that will make people smile or chuckle when they read it.
I think this is a good idea for Harvard to do because it gives the students a chance to express themselves while making fun of prestigious awards. Some may think its wrong that they're making fun of it but they're not doing anything wrong so it's fine.

This is weird, how do they figure that cows with names produce more milk.. are you telling me that if a new mom doesn't have a name her baby won't be able to survive? Then again, I guess this is just news.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Leonard, this is weird, but it is funny as well. It does give the students a chance to have some fun and express themselves, but some of these inventions are just a little strange!!!
