R349 was hired in November
by Schilling to write the weekly WOT |
Hanover, NH:
In a chilling allegation of plagiarism, a robot has
stepped forward to accuse the social chairs of
exploiting his writing talents without acknowledgement.
R349, a late model Siemens writing bot, has been
composing the WOT since early November 2006, when
Charlie Schilling and Brooke Szostak took over the
writing duties. Friends of the social chairs
commented that the pressure of entertaining their
classmates each week with a humorous email was just too
much to bear. So the pair hired a robot to do the
work for them.

The format of the WOT instantly changed. Goodbye
subtle humor, 2 point font, and links to hilarious Tuck
minutiae. Hello professional HTML and simple
cut-and-paste jobs.
Rob Langrick T'06 spoke with the Tuck Profit about the
allegations. "The T'07 social chairs, Marc and
Whitney, did an outstanding job trying to be as funny as
me. Only a Brit like Tony Hanlon or Stephen
Pidgeon could have done better. And now the T'08's
go out and hire a robot? Bloody hell!"
Officials in Admissions have confirmed that Langrick has
submitted an application to join the class of 2009.
The Judicial Board is currently weighing appropriate
responses to the allegation. "Tuck's Honor Code is
pretty fuzzy about artificial intelligence," said Ted
Callahan, "but we're working on it."
