Super Squirrel Squad
From the archives of TiPWiki, the unofficial Duke TIP Wiki
The Super Squirrel Squad (SSS) was the name of the 2007 Politics in Practice class. The name comes from the mascot, Squirrel Who's Sane. Their T-shirts consisted of a picture of George W. Bush folding his hands with a nuclear explosion in the background. On the back it shows a quote that says "If this were a dictatorship it would be a heck of a lot easier,just as long as I'm dictator."(George W. Bush) They were highly active throughout the campus, putting on a rally in front of Oliver Hall and giving out public punishments (mostly done by Andrew Mahtook.) (We're sorry, Andrew!)
