			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>EVANSTON—Weinberg freshman Joe Krawson disappointed his high school graduating class on Monday when he received a failing grade on his macro-economics midterm exam, earning only 23 points out of a possible 50.  Only 6 months prior, the 382 seniors of Krawson&#8217;s Washburn High School in San Diego, California had voted him the male student &#8220;most likely to succeed.&#8221; </p>
<p>In his position as senior class president at Washburn, Krawson was well-liked for reducing detentions by 40% and for planning &#8220;the best prom on a boat Washburn&#8217;s ever had,&#8221; according to yearbook committee chair Kari Aleckstaf.  Along with his accomplishments in student government, she gives credit for the win to his career drive and strong resume.  &#8220;He interned at an investor bank or whatever last summer.  I think his dad&#8217;s on the board.  They have really nice alcohol at their house.&#8221;</p>
<p>On campus at Northwestern, Krawson has continued a tradition of public service, despite faltering academically. &#8220;His &#8216;Chill for the Children&#8217; smoke-in benefit event last week raised nearly $200 for charity, and he&#8217;s been very successful as our vice-treasurer-at-arms&#8221; said fellow Pi Kappa Alpha member Kyle Carter. &#8220;He&#8217;s definitely going places.&#8221; Other brothers expressed their agreement, saying &#8220;That dude&#8217;s awesome,&#8221; and &#8220;Have you seen his Beamer?  It&#8217;s sick!&#8221;</p>
<p>Krawson himself declined a full interview with <em>The Flipside</em>.  When asked about the situation, his only comment was &#8220;Westside, bitches,&#8221; with an accompanying hand gesture. </p>
<p>As for the failing mark on the midterm, it appears that Krawson will be appealing for a regrade.  &#8220;He sent me an email last night expressing his dissatisfaction,&#8221; said Teaching Assistant Kelly Wu.  &#8220;I think he might have been trying to offer sexual favors for a better grade, but there were a lot of misspellings and the whole thing was generally pretty jumbled, so I&#8217;m not sure.&#8221;</p>
