The main reason I decided to do this is because the money is being donated to the Lupus Foundation. It's for a good cause. The auction was emceed by senior Jeff Betts and sophomores Nina Warren and Andrea Stubbs. Warren poked fun at the women in the audience by calling them cheap. She told them they needed to stop saving for Christmas and start paying for what they were looking at.
Some students take offense the degradation that auctioning brings.
Temu looks at it differently. Even though it is called an auction, I don't look at it as something degrading, she said. We are showing the love we have for our black men. We are merely putting them on an excellent pedestal. Contestants and their purchasers will meet at Damon's this Thursday for their date.
