WESTWOOD—Crowds gathered in what was later described as “reverent awe” when Lisa Myers, first-year biology student, picked up a copy of the Daily Bruin as if she were going to read it to keep up with current events. “For a minute there, it even looked like she was not only going to skim the headlines but actually read the articles,” said Alex Nguyen, who was on his way to class when he noticed Myers ruffling the pages of the newspaper loudly and examining the insides with a look of feigned interest. “Her performance as an informed student was remarkable.” Myers could not be reached for a comment but was last spotted recycling the unread paper twenty feet from its original newsstand.
