Sounds to me like they're somewhat embarrassed to be seen with you. Also sounds to me like they have a reason to be. You tend to spaz in response to, well, stimuli, and you've apparently had a fight with their faculty adviser before. I've heard you whine quite a bit about what you don't like regarding the SGA... They're probably afraid that you'll start yelling and stamping your feet while talking to a state legislator or something. I have to say, also, that it doesn't sound like you dissuaded them from this, either. As soon as you found out you went on a rampage, you spend a couple paragraphs talking about how horrible Mike is and what you would do to him if you could, and in paragraph six you basically call the president of the SGA a liar. I'm not in the SGA and I never have been, but if this is the tone you took with them then I'm not at all surprised that they didn't want to introduce you to the congress. I don't mean any of this to be offensive. You have to look at this from their point of view. You're a hard person to not smack in the head often, and meeting the state legislators is a thing where you want pleasant, mature people who will reflect well on the university. Yeah, they probably could have just explained this to you directly, but they probably also figured that you would throw a fit if they tried to. Suck it up this time and try to get along with them, and eventually you'll lose your reputation for being a spaz. Or decide that you don't want to deal with the SGA and quit (not a bad option; why would you want to deal with a bunch of rich pricks?). Either way, it's not the SGA's fault.
