Meet The Mayors: Huntsman

One of the best things about Foursquare, the location-based social-media craze, is the ability to become "mayor" of your favorite places. Simply go somewhere the most, prove it by "checking in" on your phone, then volia! Power is yours. We'd like to introduce you to the social governance of campus with our new section, Meet The Mayors. This week: a man we're not sure we envy, the mayor of Huntsman.

Charley M. (Foursquare lets you share everywhere you go but respects the privacy of your last name?) is, ironically, a College kid from California. UTB: What's your favorite thing about Huntsman? Charley M.: Little known fact: Huntsman printers actually print money too.

UTB: When you check in, where are you going? Do you feel that there's a hierarchy to the types of people there (i.e. GSR snobs versus Forum commoners)? C.M.: Either club meetings or class time aka nap time. The most ironic thing is that I come from the realm of the forum commoners (College represent), so I wouldn't know what it's like to be in a GSR. I hear they serve caviar and wine after 11 p.m., but only if you have a Wharton account.

UTB: What, if any, is your relationship with the ABP mayor? C.M.: Strained ever since I ran out of Dining Dollars.

UTB: What kind of initiatives have you implemented as mayor, or plan to implement? C.M.: Helping the West Philadelphia community by completely gold-plating Huntsman Hall. I love giving back to the community.

UTB: You have checked in 41 times in the last 60 days. Do you have a life? C.M.: Ain't no party like a Huntsman party cuz a Huntsman party don't stop. Literally. In other words, no.

UTB: Escalators or elevators? C.M.: Neither. Two words: stair gliding. I can do it backwards too.

UTB: We know many places on Foursquare GIVE you something for visiting, but we've heard that Huntsman actually TAKES a piece of your soul every time you check in. C.M.: Are you saying I can't save my soul by throwing more money at it? If it worked for Wall Street and America, it works for me.

UTB: Do you put this mayorship on your resume? C.M.: It's the only thing that's on my resume. There can only be one mayor to rule them all.

Stay tuned for more campus hotspot hotshots. E-Cultural Elite, anyone?
