Gads! I remember once the Pitt Program Council paid untold thousands of dollars to this horrible, racist guy (Louis somebody-or-other) so that he could come to our student union and spew vitriol and hatred for an hour or so. I guess it was their attempt to be "cutting edge".
Being that Pitt had a rather apathetic student body at the time, turnout was pretty sparse. A friend who covered the lecture for the school newspaper said that there were only about 30 people in the grand ballroom and that included the goofy looking guys in bowties standing behind the speaker trying to look menacing.
That sticks out in my mind as a huge waste of "your student activities fee".
