Will Foster: What A Let Down


When I asked Will Foster to do a Q&A a little over five weeks ago, I was surprised when he agreed. Almost immediately I sent him a batch of relatively easy questions - mainly because unlike with Adam Roberts, I actually was hoping on some kind of a response. Initially Will had family problems, I believe the next week might have been school-related, the next week he replied he'd get back to me the next week, the next week he no longer replied, and here we are. Anyways, this isn't the first time, back in April 2007 Foster dodged his Q&A b/c of LSAT Prep.

Over the years Will served as one of my best sources, often delivering extremely accurate precision. However, I believe guys like Will freeze up when put on the spot, perhaps why he rarely professed allegiance to any party and/or why he's declined one Q&A and accepted another, but still dodged them both.

Only the best of luck to Wiliam Foster,a true independent. The truest form a of a GDI is Will Foster - but that's tricky as well. True Independents are also potentially the last of the rogues. But as a lawyer, Will will eventually have to choose sides, going after an adversary, and preparing a plausible, bullet-proof defense for another.

Or, I dunno, it's because he's a student at a top-10 law school and doesn't have time for your treatise-style interviews.

Just a thought.

will is studying law at one of the best universities in the country, i think we can cut him some slack for not filling out your interview on demand

Valid comments. Any more?

Will Foster and his girlfriend are two of the shadiest characters ever to be in SG. If Will hadn't graduated a semester early, O&B would have run Liz Stinson for president instead of Tommy Jarden.

Duque, you remind me of Piaget's critical reasoning stages:

'Thinking is still egocentric: The child has difficulty taking the viewpoint of others.'

'Children have highly imaginative minds at this time and actually assign emotions to inanimate objects.'

I took a course at UF on Piaget, Skinner, others & also T.A.'ed it. That was 2003 though. Sadly I don't have my notes laying around, but great attempt at an insult, I'm just glad you're able to cite such learned sources.

what is at all shady about liz or will? they are two of the best people to be involved in SG here at UF over the last 5 years

I don't think Liz would ever want to be SBP in this political environment...I'm pretty sure she is above that.

You know...this post isn't a slam on Will Foster and he's still doing the Q&A. Just figured some of you might want to keep that in perspective :)

Will is on borrowed time until December 20ish. Pretty sure there are more influential people to interview in Gainesville these days anyway.

Since you are so proud of Orange and Blue Christian, and support their cause full throatedly, I just thought I would let you know you can make your check payable to Party Treasurer Kyle Huey.

Well it sure reads like a slam of Will Foster. If this isn't a slam of Will Foster, what exactly would be?

1:25 AM, you are Will Foster and I claim my 5 pounds.

Payable to Brady Beitlich.

Brady Beitlich does need some money to hire that lawyer after his underage drinking problem.

9:08: Full throatily made you think it was Will? You are wrong but I did enjoy his frequent use of it. I guess it is contagious. Like whatever I got from your mom when she had me full throatily.

So Will had enough time to write a partisan letter to the Alligator but not answer your questions...
