Short Hills, NJ – A new school club at Short Hills High School formed by a group of 10th grade students is causing concern among administrators and parents. The group of students, who named their club The Snotties, draw bar graphs comparing the number of friends they have on their MySpace pages to their classmates. “In the past month, I have added three times more friends to my page than Rachel Rothfeld,” Snotties’ president Malorie Whitting wrote in her school newspaper column, All About Us: The Life and Times of The Snotties. “At our lunch table, we don’t even have enough seats because we have so many friends,” she wrote. “Look at that kid Peter with the curly hair and fanny pack the next time you’re at lunch. He sits by himself and has no friends. I bet he doesn’t even have a MySpace page,” she added. The Robotics Club started a petition to disband the club; however, the principal said he is unlikely to address the matter as he is busy preparing a laundry list of meaningless items to address with the faculty.
