Derek Roberts, ’16, excitedly announced today that he was joining the Korean Women’s Cultural Association after receiving over half a dozen Blitzes from the campus group. He commented: “As a male with no Korean Heritage, at first I was pretty skeptical about the Cultural Association. I’ll admit I deleted the first couple messages”.
Around Blitz number seven, he reports becoming “pretty annoyed”, saying, “I really started to wonder why they would keep contacting me. I had shown no interest at all, and had in fact asked to be removed from the listserve”. However, after remarkably persistent updates about the groups’ upcoming meeting times and activities, John says he began to change his mind. Indeed, he reports that the 9th reminder in the series from the group about their meeting was a total “game changer”. In fact, the eye-grabbing colors and quirky subject line of this final message completely transformed his point of view about the Association and his personal priorities as a whole.
Derek left the interview to message his ex-girlfriend, who he confidently asserts will, in similar form, finally “change her mind” after his 13th consecutive phone call.
