HYDE WOODSTOCK ALUMNI CELEBRATION CARLOS MOYANO
Ursus:
If Jean Paul Sartre saw this, he would roll over in his grave. Or die a second death, laughing his ass off. It would give an additional layer of meaning -- and probably visceral translation -- to his novel Nausea.
Nothing against Carlos Moyano, who I do not know, and who probably was merely delivering the requisite kiss-Hyde's-ass and give-good-press to get his diploma at a belated date, but... I cannot think of a famous dead character more antithetical to the "philosophy" of Hyde School than Jean Paul Sartre.
And nothing against Existentialism either, which I've always considered a more or less solitary pursuit, and which doesn't exactly translate well into a group-think modality, but... that hasn't stopped the marketers of the LGATs and the behavior modification camps from trying it out on the less schooled masses. As it is sometimes said, "There's a sucker born every minute."
Werner Erhard (of est/The Forum/Landmark Education fame) also fancied himself such a "connoisseur" of the Existentialists. In his case, the attribution was usually (Martin) Heideggerian in nature, though I've also read of Sartre as being a source of such "inspiration."
I think these marketers just skim the surface of the interface of popular culture and academia, teasing out catchy phrases and whatnot that might work well at settling in people's mind for later recollection, not to mention the implied credibility such an association might bring... (Remember, Werner Erhard was first a salesman, as was Joe Gauld, if I remember correctly.)
In this case, I guess it all boils down to the "you're responsible for anything and everything that ever happens to you" school of thought, a creed assuredly espoused by Hyde School.
If Sartre attended Hyde, he would probably earn a moniker of "Jean Paul Two-Four," and they would probably have to refit the Dean's area to accommodate more or less permanent student living quarters. In time's past, he would have been made to wear a placard stating, "I hate the world because I hate myself." SERIOUSLY, can you just imagine him there, faced with his "legacy" distorted beyond all recognition... a more or less anarchistic free-thinker squashed into a rigid, morally righteous bastion of crushing conformity?
::puke:: YEAH!! :D

Did John Paul Rosenberg confuse himself with Jean Paul Sartre?

Personally, I much prefer the esteemed Existentialist Collective better known as "M.P."
