I love the 70s-era photos that the Minnesota State University Student Association has posted on its Facebook page under the title "Blast from the Past."
When you're a student organization with constantly changing leadership, you've got to remember your roots -- your victories and mistakes.
But above all, you must remember not to repeat the fashion crimes of the past.
(The chops, 'staches, beards -- they all scream "serious political muscle." And the tanktop on the guy on the left in the bottom photo? Makes university presidents think twice about pulling a fast one.)
