Jane Fonda with Anti-Aircraft Personnel outside Hanoi July 1, 1972
In a surprising tactical move to recruit more international students, the University of North Alabama today announced Jane Fonda will be joining the university as the new Vice President of Entertainment. In a press conference open to invited guests only, a university spokesman stated the new addition will appeal to the vast numbers of Chinese students expected to arrive on campus within the next five years.While Fonda has moved away from her openly Communistic leanings the past few years, the spokesman added that she remains a living legend to all those raised in countries that personify the term "red states."
In a footnote to the announcement, the obviously ebullient spokesman added that in deference to Zhang Zhiting, the Chinese businessman behind the new school of integrated health and a member of the National Peoples Congress, an executive branch of the Communist Party in China, the names of ROTC graduates who fought in Korea and Vietnam will be expunged from the plaques at the World War I Memorial Amphitheatre.
