The beautiful outcome is that V103 wants to work alongside Spelman College when their bone marrow registration drive is held. So, there will be publicity to a broader spectrum after all.

I heard part of it as well. Frank was working my last nerve talking about them being hypocritical. I certainly saw his point about the other rapper that came for homecoming (and liked the way the ladies handled it), but I was yelling at the radio "Do you think it is hypocritical to play the music you play, say the things you say, then talk about Bishop said this and Bishop said that and play your little Gospel song and do your little scripture before you go off the air? I sure do!
I was really suprised at the number of folks who agreed with this stance though and told them they were wrong for "coming down on Nelly".
Question: Do you or anyone else know how this got publicized? Did Spelman do a press release? What I think people failed to realize is that since the beginning of time AUC students have been protesting something and having forums about something else. It's not unusual.
