The University Science Monitor, Issue #1 Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

The University Science Monitor, Issue #1 – The Official Newspaper of the Planet University of Technology

University Tribune Closes After Single Issue – New Newspaper Founded
by GeneralTacticus

The first official news outlet of the Planet University of Technology, The University Tribune, closed down after only a single issue when founder and editor Tassadar5000 defected to the Human Hive shortly before the Unity broke up. In response, after some deliberation over the editor and name of the news outlet to replace it, Chancellor GeneralTacticus announced the opening of the second University newspaper, The University Science Monitor. In doing so, he commented that now at least “Mr. President can run the Exchanges Department without worrying about Tass spoiling things like he nearly did with the Hive.”

First Faculty Board for PUT Chosen
by GeneralTacticus

After several days of deliberation over the nature of each post on the faculty board and who would fill it, the PUT now finally has an official government. The positions were organized as follows:

Dean: Archaic
Chancellor: GeneralTacticus

Professor of Geopolitical Studies: GeneralTacticus
Exchanges Officer: Mr. President
Professor of Marketing, Advertising and Public Relations: GeneralTacticus
- Associate Professor to the school of Marketing, Advertising and Public Relations: History Guy
Professor of Social Sciences: Archaic
Professor of Pure Sciences: AdamTG02

Major Temporal Anomaly Detected
by GeneralTacticus

Approximately two days ago, a team of freelance scientists who had been working on a project involving experimental technology for observation of the temporal manifold made an astonishing announcement: there had been a severe rift in time a short while ago, which resulted in the division of the universe into two separate parallels: one in which matters carried on as they were, and one I which everything was effectively rewound by several years and left to proceed back to this point. As proof, they produced readings from their measuring devices indicating that there was a severe temporal disruption shortly after University forces opened the Unity pod which had landed near University Base, and further cited the fact that University records do not appear to agree on exactly what emerged from the pod. While on-site observers agree that ***censored for security reasons***, many University records claim that what was discovered was a mysterious alien monolith. The team ahs speculated that tampering with this monolith by researchers may have triggered the anomaly they observed.

Further news as research continues.

Philosophy, Opinion, and Editorials:

None as yet; both members and non-members of the University are welcome to send their articles to the University Science Monitor.

You are mistaken. What you saw was a mirage caused by fungus gas refracting the light from Alpha Centauri B.

Wow, this newspaper isn't plauged by the omnipresent and oppresive very kind censors of PRAVDA (the ultimate publication of the universe).

That makes it a bit better than your common public restroom graffiti.

You think the Prime Faction of the Conciousness would ever leave the most intelligent of factions? That would be a highly illogical thought. While we admire the University, they are not a match for our Gorilla supreme rationality

Function TK Gamma-8, I believe we have found the Gorilla's first target friend

It doesn't matter! If you don't know which, just release him! Depending on the Gorilla's actions, you can decipher which he is.

What you need is equations lots of it. I usually find them either very dull or very slow to read.
