News reaches Gutter Press, that a Rogue Drone has attacked the University of Caille student admission policies, after being rejected from applying to study Fine Art Appreciation at the Odotte campus.
The Rogue Drone took to Federal social media to post several hundreds of thousands of statements claiming that the "residency requirement" for students is discriminatory against "those of a spacing background".
The University of Caille station campuses in Odotte, Oirtlair, and Olelon, all in Sinq Laison region, were also assaulted, with a small cloud of miniature statues being launched at each of the stations. University of Caille janitorial staff, clearing up the statues, observed that the statues were almost entirely miniature figurines of various University senior staff, engaged in what were described as "lewd and anatomically improbable" acts, with a tentacled drone figure. Astrogeology researchers noted that the statues were carved from locally-abundant asteroid minerals, primarily Veldspar.
University of Caille administrative staff, when contacted by Gutter Press investigators, stated that the residency requirement for some students is to help students "acclimatise to the local cultural norms", in an effort to minimise culture shock amongst non-Federal resident prospective students.
The protest has received some support from Student Union officials, claiming that the University of Caille is being needlessly conservative, and that as the leading university in the Federation, if not New Eden, the UoC should strive to welcome all students, regardless of background.
A University of Caille sculpture lecturer claimed that the Rogue Drone's statues showed "a vivid imagination, but lacked technical skills of anatomical proportionality", adding that they hoped the Rogue Drone would continue to practice sculpture, instead of more destructive pastimes.

Did anyone interview the drone and asked him why he didn-¦t take distance education? |

How are you supposed to ogle your fellow students when it's their turn to model for the life drawing classes, if you do distance education ?

If only this were true. I would love to have a crack at them and figure out how they develop enough sense in aesthetics to produce art.
A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Neural networks are quite capable of analyzing millions of artistic data and learn how to process the patterns, producing something that-¦s palatable for the taste of humanity.
The drone wanting to apply for UNiversity, that-¦s the interesting thing. If it was just some sort of hacked drone playing a prank, it-¦s one thing.
But.... if some of them are trying to insert themselves in our society (and with outbursts of anger when they can-¦t) now that-¦s interesting.
