Summer’s Coming Quick, IvyGate’s Hiring Wit
Since it stopped raining in Cambridge for a couple of days, I thought I'd take the liberty open up the traditional non-official yet highly selective application for IvyGate's 2009 summer editors. Past summer editors (Maureen) have coasted on the position to the inevitable flame and gory media careers----that's not a typo, but it is awkward to read.
At this juncture, there's a quite a bit of hullabaloo about how journalism is dying and Meghan McCain's boobs are taking over the media. But not at IvyGate! We'll never go anywhere, and it will like be some Penn sophomore's boobs are taking over Dartmouth fraternities. (Yes, we have secret posts maturing in our cellars. You can have a sip when you apply.)
Now that I've used boobs to coax, it's worth noting that we also pay in beer and self-congratulation. If you think we're being too dude-bro, we'll give you stiff martinis and gift cards to Forever 21. In a gender neutral way, we offer you the opportunity to scoop out the Ivy League's dirtiest crevices for morsels of irony and flakes of hilarity. You'll make some people cry. You'll get berated in the comments section. And you'll love every minute of it. If that's not enough, you should be an i-banker. (Good luck.)
I'll announce our annual May-to-June hiatus later this week when I'm ready to say goodbye.
Meantime, if you're interested in applying or just want to hear about my day, hit me on my beeper: adam@ivygateblog.com
