Alex Kaplan is an unconventional candidate in this year’s race for Associated Students Inc. president.
With no background in student leadership, he said he wants to represent students who aren’t the typical face of ASI.
Although Kaplan said he initially wanted to join student government to get priority registration, he eventually decided to run for president when he could no longer stand the tank top policy at the gym.
“I always thought the ‘no tank tops in the gym’ rule was stupid, and that was the one thing that upset me more than anything. I go to the gym every day and as toolish as it sounds, I would ask why I can’t wear a tank top and, ‘Why are you kicking people out of the gym?’” Kaplan said.
The gym’s policy has now become one of the issues he plans to address as president, in addition to communication with students, the noise and unruly gathering ordinances and healthier food options on campus.
After several attempts to set up an interview, the 21-year-old agricultural systems management junior walked into Linnaea’s Cafe to discuss his campaign to become ASI president. He had recently worked out at the gym and was hungry, he said. After looking at the menu, he said none of the dishes have enough protein and asked to walk to Natural Café.
As he walked, he said his daily exercise routine and high protein diet are all part of his training to become a Navy Seal after college.
“I don’t want to be sitting behind a desk like my dad and brother. I want to be doing something that’s more active,” Kaplan said.
He described growing up in San Diego and how he first decided to come to Cal Poly after speaking with his brother’s friend and considering his academic background.
“I messed around in school, so I didn’t have the best grades. I applied as an ag major and then planned to change to business. My freshman year, I tried to switch into political science but didn’t have the grades,” Kaplan said.
While he admits it does bother him how hard it is to switch majors and said that Cal Poly should not force freshmen to choose a major so young, he has chosen not to make this issue part of his platform.
Kaplan said though there are bigger issues plaguing students such as increased tuition, class size and furloughs, he would rather focus on what he thinks can be accomplished in a year.
Kaplan said he will begin with communication because ASI has been compromised of a selective group of individuals who are not necessarily involved in any other activities, they are unable to meet the needs of the student body.
“Those all tie into my thing that I want real actual change,” Kaplan said.
He said the downfall of ASI is communication; to correct this, he plans to use e-mail as a main source of outreach to students.
“I think the problem with Kelly Griggs this year is she worked a lot behind the scenes where she did a lot of good stuff but people didn’t know what was going on,” Kaplan said.
The unruly gathering and noise ordinances are just some examples he said Griggs could have handled better, by keeping students updated with the meetings and compromising less with the San Luis Obispo City Council.
“I think a lot of the students are irrational to react to it by making a Facebook group that says the noise ordinance is stupid and it needs to be taken away. They don’t know where the people who created the noise ordinance are coming from,” Kaplan said. “That being said, the students have a certain right to be upset about it. The type of things that have been happening like serving alcohol to underage minors I am not advocating, but it has happened since the beginning of college and everywhere.”
As Kaplan ate, he was reminded of the third issue on his platform: healthier food on campus. He said he plans to rid the campus of soda and candy, as well as provide students with more options made from better quality ingredients.
“If you look at what is served on campus, it’s extremely expensive and extremely unhealthy. It’s really carb-based and really fatty. Is that with the students need, especially with the obesity epidemic? I think we should have a say in what food is served and where,” Kaplan said.
“Truthfully, is the best thing you should serve freshmen french fries and hamburgers? Ninety-nine percent of campus dining food is shit. It’s fatty foods greasy and carby. We should have less greasy foods and no candy and no soda.”
When asked whether students or the campus should be held responsible for someone’s diet, Kaplan said, “I think to a certain extent it should be both. Students are adults for the most part. I know I could’ve gotten a greasy hamburger instead of what I am eating now (albacore salad and two chicken breasts).”
The last issue on his platform is the “no tank top” policy at the gym, which originally motivated Kaplan to join the race.
However, it is unlikely that any change will be seen regarding the policy as, according to University Union Advisory Board Chair Lorin Torbitt, the responsibilities of the ASI president do not include policy review.
She added the “no tank top” policy has existed since the Recreation Center opened in 1993 when students decided it could make those who attend the gym uncomfortable. It has been reviewed several times and has always been endorsed by UUAB.
Overall, Kaplan said he hopes to show students that anyone can run for president and plans to bring change students can see on campus.
Since his freshman year at Cal Poly, Kaplan admits a lot has changed including him focusing more on his classes, health and goal of becoming a Navy Seal. He attributes his determination and focus to the moment he decided to quit the fraternity Lambda Chi Alpha.
Kaplan said he first began to question the fraternity when as a pledge he was forced to sit for two days in their masonic lounge for seven hours without food or water while being ridiculed by Lambda Chi members.
“They have you there in your tighty whities and they start throwing ice on you; they open all the windows and it’s cold out there and they don’t let you eat and they don’t let you drink any water and I was sitting there and the second day I told them, ‘Fuck off. I want to be in Pike.’ At that moment, I knew I was going to better myself, whether it be to quit drinking or get more muscular,” Kaplan said.
He said he was later asked to build a ‘kegerator’ for the fraternity, but after receiving $50 from each member, he decided to take the money and never build it.
Holy crap. Is this guy serious? I’m glad they ended the article by stating that he is a thief, and I also find it hilarious that his main platform is based on doing something he won’t be able to do.
Ha. Ha. HAH…
This guy is a complete joke, I don’t even know where to begin.
This is what I got out of the article:
1) He spends all his time in the gym (I guess that’s why his grades are sub-par)
2) He thinks everyone should eat like they’re training to be Navy Seals.
3) He stole $50 from all his former Brothers.
Yeah this is really the voice I want speaking for me.
Man! this guy is GREAT!
Exactly the kind of change Poly Needs! We don’t need people who study, attend class and have traditional goals, we need to be diverse anyway possible!!! W
Why not get a someone whose entire focus is on changing the most mundane rules and regulations. (I think he secretly plans to open up the gym’s policy regarding jean shorts.)
Urban Dictionary: Alex Kaplan- Sub-Par student, ASI PResidential Joke.
The ASI president has absolutely no jurisdiction over any of the things he wants to do as president, except maybe the food. But I guarantee that he will not be able to change all the food, and especially that drastically hahahaha
What a joke
1. How do you work out and diet all day and still look like you’re out of shape?
2. Even if you do get into shape to become a Navy Seal I think you have to not be completely retarded.
3. You sound like the biggest pussy ever. You couldn’t even handle joining a fraternity without crying about it to a school newspaper, not to mention it shows how loyal you are.
4. How would getting rid of soda and candy be good for the school? Believe it or not but soda and candy make the school a lot of money.
5. I’m glad the basis of your campaign was sparked by trying to bring tank tops to the gym.
6. You stole $50 from your brothers, and now you want all of Cal Poly to trust you?
7. If you really want to better yourself why not try to work on NOT being completely oblivious to basically EVERYTHING.
This profile was great- the quick facebook link was like the cherry on top, where he lists qualifications including his nice teeth. Talking about a personal hazing experience is interesting but I’d be too afraid if he won, he’d start trying to replace soda with muscle milk and something less ‘fatty and carby’..
I use to be kaplan’s old roomate and let me tell you what a class ass joke he was. We caught him rolling in bed with one of the dirtiest girls on campus and then heard about his sexual conquests with her. Later we all found out that although he was making out with her he was unable to get it up due to “pro-hormones”. So basically he rolled around butt naked with the town bicycle, lied about plowing it, tried again the next time and still couldn’t get it up. Personally I moved out of the house the next year (and I think he might have too) but what a joke haha
hes a poor student and his only platform is to wear cutoffs in the gym? I’m kindof embarrassed that i go to the same school as this guy. and what is he talking about being a navy seal for? he looks like a fatso.
Let me communicate with the beast:
“Yeah, brah, suns out guns out right, get me some of that muscle milk and get swole for the ladies”
Complete joke, I cant even believe he is actually serious about running for ASI president, he must have a skewed belief that 90% of the campus enjoys getting swole at the gym and tanning with the bros….wait brahs, the Hawaiian derivative of bro, which originates from brother.
I had to double check the calendar after reading this story. It’s so surreal I thought it was an April Fools joke.
Isn’t getting accepted to Cal Poly somewhat prestigious? This guy makes me think not.
What’s this guy’s angle? The Navy should beware.
I don’t want someone that has the nerves to steal from his brothers to be the ASI President in such an important time of state budget cuts. If he is elected, I foresee a disastrous headline in the tribune “ASI President steals from frat, now steals from University”
I am absolutely appalled that he is a serious candidate for the position. The bottom line is he is embarrassing for our university to even consider running.

Kaplan must be completely oblivious, he is advocating spreading STDs on his campaign page, which is completely open to the public, as well as admitting to being a thief, and saying that though his grades may have been sub-par that he is really tan and gets swole for the ladies so it doesn’t matter.
Oh wait, he doesn’t care about representing the people, he wants to wear tank tops at the gym and get priority registration.
Congratulations Alex Kaplan for being a complete idiot and for making a mockery out of everything ASI and this election stands for.
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=121443407867091
Haha.
Alex,
You should be absolutely ashamed and embarrassed of yourself. While I commend you for thinking that the “average” guy can run for ASI President, you are not the average guy….far from it.
You seem like a complete DB and are undoubtedly a poorly told joke.
Brian Richter
If I had a timemachine I would go back in time and give this kids mother the $400 to get that abortion…
Looks like his mom might have tried to do it on her own through the bottom of a bottle. This guy shows both mental and physical symptoms of fetal alcohol syndrome. What a joke…
Too far guys.
Aww, poor wittle alex…. are your arms too big and sweaty? It’s not easy to hide money in a tank-top, just letting you know.
if this tool gets elected president, i will leave cal poly
I’m still not convinced this guy is serious. Watching him run is like coming across an episode of Jersey Shore on TV; it’s embarrassing to the point where you can’t believe people like this actually exist.
From his “Alex Kaplan for ASI President” page (original spelling errors included):
“Why I’m qualified
-I like to play golf
-I have nice teeth
-I’m tan
-I have recieved at leat one bill clinton from a Monica Lewinksy”
I think the last point implies that if elected, he has the proper experience necessary to receive blowjobs from interns. Granted, this assumes that a ‘bill clinton’ is in fact a blowjob and not some new Soulja Boy song. I could see it going either way.
Alex Kaplan, you *points fingers in a shoot-em-up style while smiling ear to ear* are a douchebag!
according to his former roommate, he isn’t even qualified for a blowjob. sad sad liar
ahahahahahahaha
KAPPPPPIE!!!
This was one of my roommates and Tenants. I can attest to everything he says and the way he acts in the interview is completely and entirely sad but true.
Not sure who that other Marcus that commented above but it wasnt me.
Kappie, how do you expect to be a Navy Seal if you cant handle going without food and being chilly for 7 hours? Being a Navy Seal isnt as easy as Charlie Sheen makes it look.
This has to be the worst campaign ever run and while I hope it is a joke for your sake I know its not.
Kap you made me laugh.
In his defense San Luis Obispo sometimes gets all the way down to 45 at nights…. Chilly is an understatement thats downright cold! Not only will I leave Cal Poly if Kappie gets elected but I will join the Taliban if he makes it through SEAL training simply to be able to shoot at this d-bag.
Is this real? This has to be a joke.
Alright this guy has gotten enough attention, which was obviously his goal the entire time. Let’s let this be over. Thanks
This douchebag thinks he’s clever but will somebody please tell him that everybody else outgrew his kind of humor back in the 10th grade? And how about that high school muscle pose in the accompanying photo, with his hidden hands pushing out the bicepts? Grow up, Clown. This ass belongs in a diploma mill somewhere, so he can pretend he’s a college student to impress Grandma (try the U of Phoenix or De Vry) instead of polluting our air and a legit campaign with his moronic rambling and frat boy fantasies. Isn’t there some kind of campaign censure that can be levied against him (have you read the filth on his Facebook page?) This guy is an embarrassment to Cal Poly. It’s time he went back to Muscle Beach or whereever the hell he thinks tank tops matter and continue to dream on about becoming a Navy Seal.
Why doesn’t ASI drop him as a candidate? He is undermining everything that ASI is about.
Although I am in ASI, I can tell you my personal opinions…
ASI cannot drop candidates due to the ridiculous nature of their campaign or platform. Each student has a right to run for an ASI office, as well as the right to run a campaign in the way they feel is effective. Clearly, some do not make respectful decisions in this regard. However, if such disrespect continues to escalate, the situation may be referred to the Vice President of Student Affairs.
His campaign and behavior is disrespectful to the office of ASI President and the corporation would be at a huge disadvantage if somehow he got a hold of Harry Potter’s wand and got elected. If the students elected Sarah Storelli, Cal Poly ASI will continue to serve as a leading student government organization throughout the CSU system.
You’re not funny Alex, you’re offensive, sexist and immature. Your parents must be so proud. I’m embarrassed to be your classmate. Go back to Torrey Pines High School.. maybe they will think you’re cool.
I know we live in a free country, but shouldn’t we require people to be qualified (Or at least somewhat competent) in order to run for a major office? I would rather vote for a goldfish.
There are actually 2 goldfish in the ASI Student Government office that would gladly accept your nomination!

I really like Alex Kaplan’s motive of changing the food choices available to students on campus. I wonder if he would take away the fatty-high carb choice of those students who like hamburgers and fries? If so, that seems like over-regulation, which is one of the things that ticks him off. As a general matter, I think being ticked off is a good motivator for a change agent, so long as that anger and change are channeled in a respectful way of the rights of others. Speaking of rights, I also like the fact that he wants to represent the under-represented, who definitely have rights to be represented. But, speaking of rights, there is no constitutional right to disrespect your community neighbors with drunken out-of-control parties and party-goers, and certainly the City Council should represent those citizens who reside permanently in SLO neighborhoods. SLO is not just a college town, and learning to act like an adult does not mean throwing your collective weight around as alcohol consumers in the city’s neighborhoods.
Alex suggests he is beginning to think like an adult when he rejected a fraternity that engaged in stupid hazing. And, it is interesting that he decided to keep money for himself that was raised for a “kegerator.” I don’t know what the others thought of that, or what he did with the money, but I have to laugh that he chose not to spend it on a “kegerator.”
For anyone who cares, I am a retired Political Science professor, and it was kind of cool to see Alex suggest that getting into Political Science requires grades better than he had!
Not only did your comment have nothing to do with the candidate but the fact that you are trying to spin this article in a positive discredits your Ph.D immensely. Grow up Sharon.
sharon. I’ve been around alex a number of times… hes weak and inexperienced, not far from someone else in power in the US at the moment…
comparing this douche bag to our current administration makes you seem at about the same competence level as kaplan… maybe you hungout with him a little too much.
Hurrah for grown adults bickering over the internet!
Also, hurrah for Alex.
You’re a tool, and not the useful kind.
This guy is a joke. His only plan for improving the student body is allowing people to wear tank tops at the gym? Are you kidding me? Are we still in middle school? Being the president of a highly prestigious school is a serious matter and should not be left in the hands of an arrogant imbecile.
So this is why we study our asses off to get into Poly, to have a Bro like this be our student body president. Ha, and all this time I thought we were a semi-smart school who didn’t just allow meatheads to get into college based off of Daddy’s money.
Guess I was wrong.
As of 42 minutes ago, I am running for ASI president. I will make no speeches, I will post no flyers. Simply, I am "Not That Guy". Look for my Write-In support group on Facebook…
Wow Im embarrassed to be at the same school as this guy. How did he get into poly? Fun fact about our candidate, he tried out for the school rugby team and couldn’t last a week of practice… Good luck with the seals champ…
This guy is completely making a joke out of ASI and I am sure that is his goal. I am not sure how he got the 500 signatures to run for president. Like someone said before me, I really would rather vote for a goldfish rather than this tool. He even admitted to being tool-like. I like that on his facebook wall (which is now blocked for most likely this reason) it said: – “yo that chick ur running against is a complete bitch” (one of his friends)
Alex Kaplan – “dude f*ck her join her ill try to beat that whore”
I just wish Sarah was running against a worthy opponent. That way when she wins, it was because people really wanted her, not just avoiding this tool.
Sarah Storelli 2010!
say what you will about mr. kaplan, you cannot deny that he is more representative of the cal poly student body as a whole than ms. storelli. and while a lot of his campaign rhetoric is abrasive and awful, there is a self-awareness that he has that storelli lacks.
like, i’ll take “as toolish as it sounds” over the thinly veiled white american racist bullshit* that storelli’s campaign website is wrought with.
kaplan may not be most people’s ideal candidate, and he may not be the brightest guy to ever run for office, but he _is_ cal poly. to call alex’s campaign an embarrassment is to concede that cal poly is its own self-parody.
i sit next to an alex kaplan (or several, in most cases) in each of my classes. i see him every weekend that i go downtown, or every thursday that i go to farmer’s market. there is only one sarah storelli at cal poly. she is a poisonous simulacrum, a representation of a set of characteristics for which there is no original at our university. i’m not even convinced that she goes to this school. i’d like to see her transcript publicly displayed on her campaign website, similar to how obama’s website had a digital copy of his birth certificate for the 2008 election.
kaplan is a chilldog of the highest caliber, and i am excited to vote for him come election day. i hope there are public debates between the two candidates, so that he has an opportunity to silence his critics.
* – e.g. “When looking at university statistics on the surface level, Cal Poly does not seem widely diverse. After breaking down the stereotypical barrier that diversity only constitutes as race, we realize how each individual has diverse thoughts and interests.”
Uh.. sorry… I can’t read the language of STUPID
Ryan, you are a moron. Not only have you been a total fanboy, you also post stupid ass shit like the “cessation of all sales of condoms n campus. raw dog for life”. And don’t try to play that as if you were joking, because that is an awful excuse for a joke.
You try to sound like an intellectual by saying stupid shit like simulacrum. True she may not be exactly what we want, but I would much rather have an overly enthusiastic student-government-type president than this dumb fraternity abortion, who stole money and spent it on a surfboard that he is too fucking stupid to access to on Facebook for the public, or AT LEAST change the goddamn caption. WOW.
raw dog for life yo
1)It takes a raw dog to know a raw dog.
2)I am a raw dog.
3)I can vouch for Ryan Moriarty as a raw dog.
4)Ryan Moriarty vouches for Alex Kaplan as a raw dog.
5)By the transitive property, Alex Kaplan is a raw dog.
QED
Ryan, what gives you the impression that Alex is a better representative and advocate for the students than Sarah is? Alex’s relationships and network go as far as the Rec Center and maybe the turf fields…His perception of what students want is so vastly skewed, he must represent less than 5% of students…
Sarah needs no boasting, her resume speaks for itself. And if you’re so intent on seeing her in action, show up to ANY of the 14 clubs she’s involved in for a meeting, and you’ll have the honor of meeting her…should you be so lucky to breath the same air as her, you fuck.
Alex,
you are a disgrace to Cal Poly and everyone associated with it. Hopefully when you interview for a job they type your name in on the internet and find this article and don’t hire you. I wish Cal Poly had some background info on you before they made the mistake of accepting you. Grow up. I hope you pay your way through school or your parents don’t see this.
say what you will about mr. kaplan, you cannot deny that he is more representative of the cal poly student body as a whole than ms. storelli. and while a lot of his campaign rhetoric is abrasive and awful, there is a self-awareness that he clearly has that storelli lacks.
like, i’ll take “as toolish as it sounds” over the thinly veiled white american racist bullshit* that storelli’s campaign website is wrought with.
kaplan may not be an ideal candidate–or even a mediocre one–and he may not be the brightest guy to ever run for office, but he _is_ cal poly. to call alex’s campaign an embarrassment (as so many people here are) is to concede that cal poly is its own self-parody, a public mockery of itself. it’s rare that a candidate for any public office be synecdochical of its constituents, but it is something that every representative democracy should strive for.
i have sat next to an alex kaplan (or several, in many cases) in every one of the classes i’ve taken at cal poly. i see him every weekend that i go downtown, or every thursday that i go to farmer’s market. there is (allegedly) only one sarah storelli at cal poly. she is a poisonous simulacrum, a representation of a set of characteristics like which our university has never seen. i’m not even convinced that she goes to this school. in fact, i’d like to see her transcript publicly displayed on her campaign website, similar to how obama’s website has a digital copy of his birth certificate from his 2008 campaign.**
kaplan is a chilldog of the highest caliber, and i am excited to vote for him come election day. i’m also anxious for thursday’s debates, because alex kaplan will finally be given his opportunity to silence the critics and bro haters who currently plague him.
i’m voting for kaplan because i genuinely love cal poly for what it is, and not for some fantasy i have of what it ought be.
* – e.g. “When looking at university statistics on the surface level, Cal Poly does not seem widely diverse. After breaking down the stereotypical barrier that diversity only constitutes as race, we realize how each individual has diverse thoughts and interests.”
** – i would ask for ms. storelli’s birth certificate as well, but evidence suggests that she was never born, in the traditional sense. she seems a hideous, soulless construct that willed itself into existence from the ineffectual bureaucracy that is cal poly’s student government.
oh apologies for the double post
i changed a little bit of it after the original post

How do you uh, support his theft of money from Lambda Chi Fraternity?
… I have never seen Kaplan in my life, so does that mean he doesn’t exist? Your logic, much like your brah’s, is defunct my friend.
And honestly, really mature. Calling his opponent “a hideous, soulless construct” makes you sound so very intelligent that I thought of trading my vote from Storelli (highly involved, organized, and with a brain behind her platform) to Kaplan (frat brah who blatantly advertises his theft of a fraternity and that he only wanted priority and tank tops in the gym).
Bravo. I’m just hoping you can detect sarcasm.
Sam and others:
Please see definition of “sarcasm.”
Well written Ryan, I laughed all the way through your piece.
hes not a frat brah… he would have had to make it through pledging without crying for that to happen
VOTE KAPPI. WE CANNOT HAVE ANOTHER WOMAN IN OFFICE
If your young and conservative you have no soul, if your old and liberal you have no brain.
Dude… what? First off, use the right “you’re”. Geez, you graduated high school, right?
Also, what the fuck does this election have anything to do with conservatives and liberals? Grow up.
Sooo glad I could voice my opinion..it’s a shame mustang daily even wasted 3 pages on this idiot. The cover should have been black and white, because he clearly doesn’t match up to the other candidate. ASI really doesn’t mean much to me personally, but it would be disgusting to see such a retard in office.
I find this to be truly hard to believe. The idea that someone could be not only so utterly dense but to be so forward about it. I particularly enjoyed his admission of thievery.
My suspicion is that this clown is actually part of Sarah’s campaign. I can’t imagine any other scenario in which this is at all reasonable. Maybe he doesn’t know that he’s a pawn in her game? I’m not sure, but if she had the forethought to plan this all out from the beginning, then she gets my vote, whether her intentions are diabolical or otherwise.
People like Alex Kaplan and everyone that is legitimately endorsing him need to be quarantined on an island somewhere. I, like most other people that have posted, am embarrassed to admit that I go to school with this complete and total jackass.
My condolences to whoever wrote this article for spending longer than any person should ever have to spend with this tool. I really hope Alex reads all of these comments and moves far, far away.
the island exists and it’s called cal poly
THIS GUY IS A BADASSSSSSSS. im voting for him just for the pure comedic value of it all, i love this bro
I had this guy in one of my classes. Total douchebag. He took every chance he could to cheat somehow. So blatant too. He wouldn’t cooperate with any of his group members, and hardly ever contributed work for the group. How the hell does he expect to run for ASI president when he cant even wipe his own ass. Do yourself a favor Kaplan and leave Cal Poly. You’re going to be getting shit for the rest of your stay here, rather if this a joke or not.
Before I read this article, a mutual friend suggested his facebook page advertising his candidacy. It was clearly “different”, but I immediately thought he was only running for ASI President because he somehow found it humorous. When I found his personal FB page, I stumbled upon the photo album, “Frat scholarship hahahha” in which he photographed 3 surfboards with the caption, “Those fags should’ve never given me that money to pay for this”. After reading this article I can only assume that is where the money he allegedly stole from his “brothers” went to. His alleged rush experience with Lambda Chi is unfortunate; no one should endure that kind of embarrassment. In a parallel manner, I a freshmen at Cal Poly (who is involved in legitimate student government), do not wish to be put in an embarrassing situation that would surely follow his election as our main student body representative. For all of the negative talk that he has aimed at one other presidential candidate in particular, Mr. Kaplan himself does not represent to me, what we as Cal Poly students stand for. Alex has boldly marketed himself in an arrogant, self centered, and unprofessional manner and he will certainly not receive my support in this years election.
This guy thinks that being ASI president is going to be like some Adam Sandler movie. Working for ASI, I know that this is a very time consuming job that this guy wouldn’t be able to handle. Hes just another dumbass bro that gives Cal Poly a bad reputation.
this guys is a chu lamina. he’s got my vote.
I heard he wants to help save Darfur too
Is this guy joking? Is this guy smart enough to pull a joke like this? I almost feel ashamed to be going to the same school as this tool.
GUARANTEED he is not part of Sarah’s campaign… guaranteed.

An adequate summary of this article and subsequent comments can hopefully be encapsulated within the following animated gif:

Good day.
Hahaha this guy thinks he can be a Navy Seal but can’t complete Lamda Chi’s pledging process? This guy’s an absolute joke.
As poor of a candidate as this guy may be, I think you all should be ashamed of yourselves for saying such hurtful things on a public forum that he WILL see. No one deserves to have such horrible things said about them. Since most of you are probably only judging him by the way this article was written, and since you’re all SoOoO involved with politics, I think you should probably go to a more credible source than the Mustang Daily. And low blow for the author actually publishing the LCA stuff.
Freedom of speech goes both ways.
Seriously, if he was brave enough to talk about it with a person he KNEW was writing an article about his campaign, I don’t know why they wouldn’t talk about it.
Where might this credible source be then? He doesn’t show to public forums, he doesn’t campaign, he didn’t show up for interviews with the mustang daily…
The only info you can find about this guy is from his facebook page, facebook campaign page, and this article. Funny thing is, they all paint the same picture.
If you find any redeeming qualities about Kaplan, feel free to let us know.
First of all, I wouldn’t say that everyone isn’t involved in politics because I wrote on this and I am insanely in love with politics. Second, if he did not want any of that published he should not have said it. You can not blame a journalist for publishing something he said during an interview. After all, isn’t that what interviews are for? And you are also telling students that they should not trust the things the mustang daily publishes, the one magazine that most students get their news from. Way to deter them from even caring about what is going on in their community and outside of it.
The should be about him running and the journalist made it about his fraternity. She started with trying to demean him and ended doing the same as much as she could.

Since most of you are probably only judging him by the way this article was written, and since you’re all SoOoO involved with politics, I think you should probably go to a more credible source than the Mustang Daily. And low blow for the author actually publishing the LCA stuff.
If he’s so concerned about having his feelings hurt maybe he shouldn’t joke about spreading STDs or maybe he shouldn’t have ever run for office. He put himself out there, and for the most part people are just reiterating what he said in the interview. Alex Kaplan is running his own smear campaign simply by opening his mouth, no outside help necessary.
Side note, have you read any of the heinous things he and his friends have been saying about Sarah Storelli?
not a fan of kaplan, but the comments made about storelli were right on. shes a ugly, stuck up bitch. also really stupid.
storelli, lose some weight you stupid cunt!
i hope they both lose somehow.
Learn to respect women you fucking ignorant ass.
And if you’ve got better ideas, then run. But don’t bash a girl because she turned you down at some party.
Thank you anonymous male =)
Roy,
It makes me angry as well as sad to read this and think about people like you out in the world today with such hateful, ignorant, an unintelligent things to say.
* ‘aN ugly’ from your comment, dumbass.
Your such a bitchmade guy (if you even are one), did you get a nut off by defending someone on a post..?
shut up fag
This dude seems legit brah. He’s got my vote.
Raw dog for life!
Wait . . . he’s militaristic, overfed, narcissistic, sheisty, underqualified, and outspoken? He sounds like he could already be a congressman . . . or at least in State Assembly. That being said, I think better communication (dare I say involvement?) with the student body could be highly beneficial.
But in all seriousness, somebody needs to stand up to the profiteers that run the police state that this town has become. The Unruly Gathering Ordinance is utterly draconian, despicable, and invasive; perhaps a Navy Seal is just the man for the job.
Let’s just hope he shoots better than he studies.
great, another bleeding heart liberal. “somebody needs to stand up to the profiteers that run the police state that this town has become” (CHL) shut the fuck up. at least the police in slo protect students, come up to santa cruz and you may get gunned down by some piece of shit 17yo gangbanger. and for anyone who wants to quote the article correctly, its Navy SEAL, not Navy Seal. big difference.
There’s NO GANGBANGERS HERE FUCK-FACE, they couldn’t afford it. The police protect the public from you, a student. They get paid more money to knock on doors and take away your right to gather because your a student. If there’s more than 20 your done, no warning. Guess what if no one fights for someones freedom they don’t have it. thats why theres two sides. So you go put a Slo PD cock in your mouth and shut up.
Hey suSKANK… Just so you know the police along with just about all other state employees aren’t getting paid much at all, and many are getting laid off because we are in a deficit… probably thanx to your liberal mindset… so don’t point the finger at the police. They are only doing their job… if you really hate the police for enforcing the town ordinance than you should be mad at the city hall and the residences for passing the ordinance you fucking moron… Nice post TomB
I don’t know weather to laugh or feel badly for this guy. What the F*** was he thinking?!
Good job Cal Poly for giving Alex Kaplan one more thing to brag about — “causing the biggest ASI presidential scandal ever (he would probably throw a brah in there somewhere)”
So, if Kaplan is too under-qualified, and Storelli is too over-qualified, then do we as students even know who is qualified to run our student government?
As a quick note, everyone that posted rude, unnecessary things about Kaplan should feel lucky that his lack of character was publicized in the Mustang Daily. Do any of you know the characters of the people running for your college’s Board of Directors? There could be someone WORSE than this guy representing your college next year, but you wasted your time joking on an easy target.
Trust me, I know some people running for Board of Directors positions, and a lot of them are probably just as sub-par as Kaplan, they just chose a less important position. Think about it.
Ryan Moriarty for ASI President!
I would vote for that man. He is a man with a plan.
This guy is a total douche
Not gonna lie. I kind of want to see this guy in a debate now.
I can’t vote for him. Can’t he see the parallel between his banning soda and candy on campus and the Rec Center banning tank tops? Let us decide what we want to eat and drink on campus. Technically, we are adults. Treat us as so. I don’t care enough about tank tops to vote for him.
TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Alex Kaplan is the tool-bag, meat head version of Sarah Palin.
Alex Kaplan is basically the tool-bag, meat head version of Sarah Palin.
Call me crazy but that “Emily” chick looks like she could be potentially hot…
no joke man, i was thinking the exact same thing.
anyone that has there picture on these comments though automatically loses, so believe me, she ain’t hot.
why does she automatically lose? i just think she knows shes hot enough to flaunt it.
Where might this credible source be then? He doesn’t show to public forums, he doesn’t campaign, he didn’t show up for interviews with the mustang daily…
The only info you can find about this guy is from his facebook page, facebook campaign page, and this article. Funny thing is, they all paint the same picture.
If you find any redeeming qualities about Kaplan, feel free to let us know.
If I come back next year and Chick Filet is gone I’m going to be pissed.
I would drop out and move closer the the fil-a
this guy may be the biggest tool at cal poly, and thats saying a lot because there are a lot of tools at this school. unfortunately, his oppositions sucks also…looks like another year when I could give a shit about the school election (it’s not like the president does anything anyway, right?)
also, nobody wants some pike (or any frat for that matter) douchebag being the spokesperson for the school.
alex, do us all a favor and kill yourself.
Roy are you really stereotyping every fraternal member into the deuchebag category? You are one of the most ignorant people here for saying that. You have no idea how much hard work goes into successfully running a STUDENT RUN Greek Organization. What do you do all day? Go to class, come home, jerk around, do some homework, sleep, do it again? damn you sound like a productive average student willing to talk shit on people who actually want to be a part of and contribute to something that is bigger than they are.
Shut your mouth before you talk next time… Tool.
we need a like button on here
oh shit it must be so hard to run a frat. i forget how hard it is to organize who buys the alcohol and how we are gonna keep the lower members in line and do what we want and call it brotherhood.
sarcasm aside, you cant blame the guy for having that opinion about fraternity members. if you want to make a point that not all fraternity brothers are alex kaplans, it would serve you better to be more cordial than taking the hostile tone you have.
instead, direct your anger towards the alex kaplans who give your greek society a bad name.
roy, that go kill yourself comment was really distasteful. alex kaplan, I think you sound like a total asshole, but it’s by choice, so don’t kill yourself just be nicer.
n/a, really? ..really? a lot of cal poly students work at women’s shelters, homeless shelters, children’s centers, etc and that’s a lot harder than running a frat and actually makes a difference. get over yourself
and lastly, jeff, well said
In my 4 years here at Cal Poly, I have never seen such a contrast in the popularity of ASI candidates, and I would be surprised if there ever has been such a contrast in Cal Poly’s student government history.
I think there is enough commentary on Mr.Kaplan’s character, but even on top of that I think that he has an irrelevant and unpopular platform as well. Beyond the boilerplate concerns of communication, furloughs, & tuition hikes, his top priorities keep me scratching my head. Banning candy and soda might make sense in an elementary school, but we are adults and I think that we ought to be able to choose what we consume (plus, good luck trying to get Cal Poly to part with its contract with Coca-Cola).
The tank top issue isn’t really important to me (or most of the campus, I imagine), but even if it was, he doesn’t seem to understand why the rule is in place. I think that if he wants “change” then he should express his understanding of why the rule is in place and develop an argument against it. Even then, the best he could do as ASI president is recommend that the Rec center change the policy.
I’ll get off my soapbox now (I think I was captain obvious anyway), but overall I just can’t see Kaplan as a viable candidate and its nice to see that pretty much everyone else agrees.
How does this guy plan on getting ANY of the greek vote when exposing secrets of a fraternity? Who the hell does he think he is? He just lost every fraternity/sorority member’s votes.
I’m gonna agree with most everyone here that this guy has no idea what he is doing and would likely flounder in his own ignorance if by some miracle he were elected. That said, he actually (and no doubt accidentally) made two good points. 1) ASI is completely disconnected from the student body in general and Storelli is no exception. 2) Its all the same people who aren’t involved anywhere else. They just trade jobs like some sort of wierd MonSantos/FDA parallel.
And on a side note, ASI in general is no friend to the College of Engineering… they gave us the shaft during eWeek…
We might have received “the shaft” from several places on campus during eWeek. ASI thankfully wasn’t one of them.
This tool belongs with the rest of the dbags on Jersey Shore
Is this a joke? I think its sad that this candidate is choosing to make a mockery of student government and its importance on our campus. His irresponsibility with his words is a huge disappointment because he represents our student body to the rest of the world and should heed some tact when stepping up to the soap box. As for his allegations against said fraternity he is no victim. It shows his weak character in how he chose to present these allegations and brag about keeping their money for himself. If he was truly hurt by hazing incidents there are ways to report them. This is not one of them.
It makes me sad as a campus ambassador that cares very deeply for the reputation of the school, that he is willing to so poorly represent us due to his selfish agendas. We all have the right to free speech but that right is a privilege not an entitlement, and it should be treated with respect.
SAD.
FRATS SUCK! and this guy does too.
does anyone actually care about asi though? if so why? you should stop wasting your time.
You’re really cool.
We collectively trolled Kaplan so hard he removed all the entertaining bits from his Facebook campaign page. Now, all it really says is “I’m running for President of ASI for reals.”
Class act.
when i was reading this, all i could hear in my head was “bright bright bright bright bright bright” in this sort of absurd, childish refrain
probably because of your choosing to call what “we” did “trolling”
needless to say, it was real unsurprising to see that youre a member of a brights group on facebook
KEEP FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT FELLOW SECULAR BRUH
LESS GOD MORE XKCD
Alex’s campaign platform reminds me of those that kids had when running for elementary school positions.
His either-or fallacy that if we do not get rid of all soda and candy and have less greasy food or we will have an obese campus is ridiculous.
He obviously has no idea about politics. He could have possibly gotten some votes from the Greek community due to the fact that I know many guys who would enjoy tank tops allowed at the gym and more protein on campus, however he threw all of those votes out the window after disrespecting the Greek system by announcing secrets he vowed to keep to the whole community.
If the goal of his campaign is to get the least votes for ASI President in Cal Poly history he is right on track!
This is pretty funny. Navy Seal… Thats the best part, a Navy Seal? Please…
what the fuck?
As unqualified as this guy is, give him some credit for actually running, something none of you have done.
It’s really sad how poorly the author wrote this article as compared to the piece on the other candidate. I feel that as a journalist, she focused only on the positives of Sarah’s article, while on this one she only focused on the negatives. It truly is unprofessional. I don’t care how much she likes the other candidate; it was her job to provide readers with the facts and instead she threw her personal biases into it. I saddened that MD decided to choose her as the author for these pieces.
As someone who knows her very well, the journalist has no opinion on either of the candidates. She simply wrote an article based on the direct quotes she received from Alex. She even played me the audio of the interview, and it is obvious there is no embellishment or personal bias on her part. You are way out of line placing the blame on a well respected and hard-working journalist.
What is really sad is the way Alex chose to run his campaign. The only person that should be blamed for the negative attention is him, because he brought it on himself.
Respected journalist? She doesn’t have my respect, she butchered the entire main idea of the topic. I think Alex is a circus clown anyway, but the journalist wrote added things to the article that should have been left unsaid. I do see the relevence of Kaplan’s “High Protein Diet” and his open confession of stealing money from a fraternity? Nor do I see the relevence of having 4 paragraphs mocking a fraternity relevent to the article at all.
As a non-bias journalist you are supposed to leave out any information that is irrelevent. Only a bias journalist would choose to add information that is not only self incriminating to the candidate, but also embarressing for a third party concerned.
Both the journalist and the editor should be put in the corner for slinging this horse crap around
You’re embarrassing for not being able to spell embarrassing. the point of the article was to present the candidates and have the student body get to know their character. it was an advertisement type piece where the candidates were supposed to present their platform and their qualifications for the job. protein, stealing money, etc are things HE brought up and centered the interview around. the asi president is put in charge of a $4 million dollar budget, and by including his admission to embezzlement, it is giving the student body population a chance to make an educated choice with their vote. and what the hell does put in a corner mean? you’re as immature as alex kaplan for suggesting a punishment fit for a 3 year old for students doing their job
It’s really sad how poorly the author wrote this article as compared to the piece on the other candidate. I feel that as a journalist, she focused only on the positives of Sarah’s article, while on this one she only focused on the negatives. It truly is unprofessional. I don’t care how much she likes the other candidate; it was her job to provide readers with the facts and instead she threw her personal biases into it. I saddened that MD decided to choose her as the author for these pieces.
Trust me. If you’ve ever spoken to this kid you would know that she DID highlight the positives…
I completely agree, and Kara, get off your high horse and stop judging people based on ridiculously biased articles
The point was that I know the kid. and this article is not biased.
the amount of people attesting to the non biased way that alex kaplan was presented only strengthens the validity of the piece. it seems if she had allowed her bias to show, it would have spelled out what a grade a douche bag this kid is just like the 150+ comments have
While I don’t think Alex should have ran, I do agree with some of his points. Kelly Griggs has been “behind the scenes” so much no one knows what she actually has done. Has she done anything? I sure as hell don’t know. And the food on campus is complete shit like Alex has said along with unhealthy. Cal Poly should be ashamed at feeding its students that crap.
COMING SOON: Tank tops you can wear to the gym. Be on the lookout.
Shame on you Mustang Daily for creating a mockery of Cal Poly via the world-wide-web. And shame again is on you for printing such a ridiculous article… and i thought you were the student voice. Guess that integrity was out the window the second this article was printed, you must have know what was going to happen, any reasonable person who read that article would have foreseen this. With that, im done reading mustang daily, go fuck yourselves, good day.
hey n/a you should go back to sucking your boyfriend alex off
since when is paying for friends a good thing? because that is basically what you are doing joining a "student run greek organization" and the stereotype that the roy guy put out there is sadly pretty true im sure there is an exception but i have yet to see one and a vast majority of frats and sororities ARE just a pack of douche bags thus creating the stereotype.
This guy is awesome. I hope I get to meet him one day.
The Coalition for the Restoration of Alex Kaplan in the Cal Poly Community (or CRAKCPC, for short) is a grassroots movement which began in late April 2010. We were forced to watch as Cal Poly’s favorite son, Alex Kaplan, fell victim to the twisted gaze of mainstream media (MSM). Cal Poly’s student-run newspaper, The Mustang Daily, coordinated a deliberate smear campaign against Kaplan from the very onset of his campaign. After over a thousand Mustang Daily partisans and Storelli brown shirts had taken to publicly mocking this great man, the criticism became too much to bear. His campaign was in ruin, and his reputation lay wretched in its wake. He had no choice but to concede.
Now, we the members of CRAKCPC are resolved to see the restoration of a tragic hero in his darkest hour.
We demand:
1. The immediate public apology of the entire staff of the Mustang Daily, and its subsequent resignation. The corruption’s roots run deep; every student involved in the creation of those fateful newspaper articles is culpable for these heinous crimes, from lowly photographer Patrick Fina to disgraced Editor-in-Chief Emilie Egger, whose name is as alliterative as she is illiterate.
2. The concession of Sarah Storelli from the ASI Presidential race. We will not stand for the noxious, white supremacist vitriol which fuels her campaign, nor will we let her role as co-conspirator in the plot against Alex Kaplan go unpunished. Once she has publicly announced her resignation, she must surrender herself to Judicial Affairs, where she will be placed at the mercy of the same corrupt bureaucracy which once sought to put her in power.
3. The restoration of Alex Kaplan’s Presidential campaign, as well as the guaranteed inclusion of his name on the election ballot. To permit this farcical trope of Democracy to continue unchecked would be a crime of the same magnitude and nature as those already perpetrated against him.
4. The seizure and subsequent redistribution of Sarah Storelli’s hoard of campaign wealth among the students of Cal Poly, as penance for her crimes. In addition, Storelli’s red-shirted gestapo will be made to submit (by force, if necessary) their campaign uniforms to a pyre; its cleansing fire will purge our proud university of the taint of her actions.
5. The tearing down of the exterior walls of the University Union. No longer will Kelly Griggs and her ASI junta be permitted to coordinate and execute their nefarious machinations protected by the cloister of an urban fortress. The reign of the clandestine regime of ASI’s shadow government is coming to a close. With Alex Kaplan, an era of progress and radical transparency will be ushered in, and “better communication and shit” along with it.
We stand at the precipice of a moment of great change, and we do so in solidarity with a greater man. If our demands are not met promptly and in full, there will be a reckoning the likes of which our campus has never witnessed. The Mustang Daily will have its darkest secrets brought to light, and in the process it will fall further from grace, to the darkest depths of the journalistic abyss. The ensuing controversy will no doubt cause the Journalism Department to be denied its request for reaccreditation. Closet Alex Kaplan supporters will rise, and the University Union will run red with the cast-down shirts of Storelli’s secret police.
Alex Kaplan has endured character assassination, and worse. Now, let us effect his restoration and see justice brought unto those who once conspired against him.

When i run for office, i will hire you as my speechwriter.
For all of your flamboyant rhetoric and apparently finely-honed investigatory skills (read: slander and stalking!), Dr. Moriarty, you nevertheless fail to posit any argument whatsoever.
Yur all fags.
The editor in chief should step down for having this article published. Not only is the candidate a total moron just looking for his chance in the spotlight, the journalist who wrote this garbage flew off topic and turned the article into a story about a fraternity instead of the kids campaign. I honestly don’t think my highschool newspaper class would have passed this crap on as news.
the fraternity part was the last couple paragraphs, and it’s what he rambled on about in the interview. don’t shoot the messenger
SEAL, they are not aquatic mammals learn how to spell it.
Really, it ought to be SeAL. Just for your information, the acronym represents “sea, air, land”, the environments in which the Navy SEALS [sic] are trained to operate. And they’re humans. Hence, mammals. Ergo, in one third of operating conditions they actually *are* aquatic mammals.
*bows and steps aside*
Its not hard to make someone look bad. He made it easy. Just because he has certain attributes and flaws doesn’t mean he doesn’t have certain things it takes to make a difference. I’ve heard the person he was going against talk and couldn’t understand her. She didn’t connect with people, more talked at them. But hey, who cares really after you choose her, you won’t hear much of her again and she can check it off on her resume like the others.
Best Comment written so far.
There’s NO GANGBANGERS HERE FUCK-FACE, they couldn’t afford it. The police protect the public from you, a student. They get paid more money to knock on doors and take away your right to gather because your a student. If there’s more than 20 your done, no warning. Guess what if no one fights for someones freedom they don’t have it. thats why theres two sides. So you go put a Slo PD cock in your mouth and shut up.
There ARE gang members here and they LOVE going to parties on Hathway. Just thought I would enlighten you.
where did you think your ipods went?
Dear Jessica,
You may aspire to be a journalist in real life when you graduate, but I will personally send this incredibly biased and tainted profile on an incredible person to every newspaper in california so they can see how you are a petty biased individual incapable of achieving journalistic integrity. this character assassination is disgusting. the fact you mention that alex is concerned with his diet is irrelevant to his platform as presidency. you should be ashamed of yourself. you are trash not worthy of any major at cal poly. you lack the integrity to even be a student of higher education. i am ashamed to go to school with you. you are close minded and place far more importance on your pathetic life and views. the fact you failed to give any credit to his valuable comments and sought nothing but to portray in the most negative light shows that you are far worse a person than you make Alex Kaplan to be. You should be lucky he even wasted his time with someone like you.
Dear AKAPLEFITPREZ,
You may aspire to be someone who comes off witty and not an asshole, but I will personally tell you that you are a piece of shit. This comment screams how you have noting better to do than try to tear someone doing their job down so you can feel better about not accomplishing jack. He referenced his diet enough to the point where it was warranted she mention it, especially considering that this guy didn’t give her a legitimate platform to actually discuss. I’d like to see you find valuable comments to use from a guy who admitted to embezzling money from a fraternity to a fucking newspaper representative. The fact that you could find it necessary to post this sorry low-blow comment at a fellow student who didn’t choose to have themselves on blast as Kaplan did is disgusting and shows a huge lack of character.
Sincerely,
YOUREADUMBASS
britney- thank you! it is about time that someone stuck up for the journalist in this situation.
jessica barba- i commend you for your honesty. Furthermore, thank you for shedding light on the fact that Kaplan is a douche bag.
If she asked the right questions, he could have provided her with good answers. Ask me to talk about nothing for an hour while I’m eating my lunch and I’ll talk about my diet too.
Honestly Britney were you there to be able to say he said this x times or that y times, you are sad and pathetic, take everything for face value. stop putting or taking words out of his mouth. your best bet is to just marry yourself off since you lack the intellect to be successful on your own. good luck in life, you will need it too. and honestly get over the fact that Alex Kaplan may or may not be a douche. since it matters to you so much, you are probably one giant one yourself.
and KC, is the point of journalism really to she light on someone being a db? its called mudslinging and its wrong.
If she asked the right questions, he could have provided her with good answers. Ask me to talk about nothing for an hour while I’m eating my lunch and I’ll talk about my diet too.
Congratulations Alex Kaplan. You have succeeded in making a complete ass of yourself and telling the whole school about it. Not to mention that anyone who types your name into Google will see this article for a long time to come…
Dear Alex Kaplan,
You fucked up. It’s not the article making you look like a huge douchebag, it’s your own image you are portraying via facebook, what you choose to speak about, and being a complete pussy. You are a walking joke.
Love,
A concerned Cal Poly Student

Cry cry cry…
Article writer needs to understand what a journalist does.
So many hiiaorsctl myths and distortions on your part that it’s not even worth the time to correct your nonsense. My god, do you even believe the BS you just wrote? I mean from a hiiaorsctl point of view, nearly everything you stated is the opposite of what went down.
It’s comforting to know that, whenever I’m depressed, I always know I can come read this article to feel better about myself.
