A pancho, sort of!
A few weeks ago we realized that you could kinda-sorta get free quarters from Hartley. Mahima Chablani found some other party favors at the Hospitality Desk:
- The Hospitality Desk is currently giving away stylin’ plastic ponchos to save us from this ugly weather.
- Students can also sign out space heaters fo’ free, which must be returned by May. Get them while they last!
- In the near future, Hartley is expected to receive shipments of energy-efficient light bulbs
- There should also be a shipment of shopping bags/carts to accompany us to Westside
- Not free but don’t forget: if a special someone is sharing the night Hartley has a token air mattress available for rental ($10 per night, $25 per weekend).
- And as always, students have access to Hartley’s stamp machine and faxing services, and can sign out ping-pong rackets, pool sticks, handtrucks, and moving bins.

@Anonymous If they need an air mattress, then they’re probably a not so special someone.
@So are the lightbulbs being given out or are they just installing them in hartley? i have a lamp with no bulbs… if you know what I mean.
@Anonymous I have a legitimate problem with the unholy electric light bulbs people are installing all over. They give me headaches if I am in just that light with no other light source (natural, candle). This is a real medical condition that has been diagnosed. I realize that unnatural electric current is more constant than candles, but I can’t copy manuscripts with it, and thus can’t copy in most places in butler and around campus. There should be designated rooms for candle power.
Also, candleabras are subjectively much better looking with all of the wood and marble we have in Butler. The circulation desk area is just ruined by garish electric light.
@J Kruta Use f.lux, it changes your computer screen based on time of day/light source and eliminates headaches in the process. http://www.stereopsis.com/flux/
@Anonymous I have a legitimate problem with the energy efficient light bulbs people are installing all over. They give me headaches if I am in just that light with no other light source (natural, incandescent). This is a real medical condition that has been diagnosed. I realize that CFLs save energy and all that, but I can’t study with them, and thus can’t study in most places in butler and around campus. There should be designated rooms for incandescent.
