44: I Don’t Know Anything About Losing a Presidential Election with Kallen Dimitroff

The year is 2016. At the University of Texas at Austin, four student government presidential candidates were eagerly clamoring for voter support, the chance to pass university reforms, and a seat at the table.

Beautiful, bright, and blonde, 22-year-old Kappa Kappa Gamma member Kallen Dimitroff was poised to win the presidency. Unfortunately, as soon as the race officially started, her leading campaign was poisoned by rumors, negative press coverage, and dozens of – insane! – false allegations. (Spoiler alert, everybody: She lost!)

In this episode, Dimitroff teaches us how to gracefully preserve our sense of dignity, class, and self-respect, even in the face of considerable adversity.
