Plucky White House Interns Rename West Wing Hallway ‘Sorkin Meeting Room’

Feeling comfortable after working “three grueling weeks” as White House interns, a few members of the Spring 2016 White House intern class held a ceremony in the West Wing earlier this week. The hallway running outside the Roosevelt Room was un-officially named the “Sorkin Meeting Room” in an informal ceremony attended by some senior White House officials who made comments such as “excuse me” and “get out of my way.”

Jay Hamilton, a junior studying “Political Government or something” at Georgetown and self-elected President of the intern class, said the dedication was intended to honor the hallowed grounds walked by such great historical figures as “Jed Bartlett and Leo McGarry.”

“Some of the greatest and most influential figures of American history walked these halls and life-changing decisions were made in these rooms,” said recent Yale graduate Lisa Campbell. “Right over there, negotiators worked up to the last minute on the debt ceiling. And remember when CJ did ‘The Jackal’?”

“Oh, did Jay mention me earlier? He’s kind of the Josh to my Donna,” Campbell added.

There was no official comment from the White House on the matter. When the Sorkin Meeting Room was brought up in a press conference earlier this week, Press Secretary Josh Earnest said “oh yeah, that,” before changing the subject. In an unrelated incident, he was later seen in a Foggy Bottom coffee shop slapping a twenty-something across the face.
