In a groundbreaking display of emotional vulnerability, third-year political science major Andrew Logan announced over the weekend that he is “not ready for the commitment” required by his POL S 15 group project. Sources report that demands such as skimming academic articles, making slides and communicating over text were beyond Logan’s abilities.
In an exclusive interview with Nexustentialism, Logan explained the turmoil that he was experiencing when he made his decision.
“I’m kind of a deep thinker, so I don’t just jump to conclusions,” Logan said. “I really like my group and what we’ve got going on; I’m just not ready for all that. I work at Snag, so my plate has been really full lately.”
Logan’s group members expressed their disappointment and confusion as to how he could have simply left a project that was for a grade.
“We had been acting like a group with Logan for weeks. He totally gave us the impression that he was going to commit to us all the way, but I guess he had other plans,” second-year political science major Emma Song said.
Logan emphasized that he did not want to actually leave the group — he just wanted to reap the benefits of his groupmates.
“I mean, I don’t want to not be in the group. I want the credit and the grade. I just can’t commit to all the other stuff,” Logan said. “I don’t know why my groupmates wanted me off of the project after I said I wasn’t ready for the commitment — it’s basically the same thing.”
He also highlighted that the group should never have expected his full commitment.
“I never thought of us as a ‘group,’ more like a groupuationship,” Logan said. “You know, like a group, but not. I thought we all had that mutual understanding. I didn’t expect them to get upset when I said I was too busy for this right now.”
Community members report hoping that this inability to commit is an isolated incident and will not turn into an epidemic similar to that of situationships.
