@CCSC Um, didn’t they call for financial aid reform last year? And the year before that? And haven’t they learned that what they do is irrelevant, it’s all about how much money Columbia has in the bank to afford reform?
This is why Student Government is lame.
@raphael I liked this section of the Spivak article:
“Spivak also explained the importance of humanities across disciplines. “The humanities can train for a better world,” she said. “They take time and patience.”
Spivak’s defense of the humanities was laden with academic jargon, but the audience appeared rapt.”
@Anonymous (The one from the article, yes)
I think that whole rule about not allowing a guy and a girl to live together is dumb. I mean, I can see people’s concerns about that for blind doubles, but if they request to live together, what’s the big deal?
@wow anastasia is a retarded douche. just because my roommate doesn’t dump cats on me doesn’t mean that we’ll be best friends forever. most of those questions described behaviors too eccentric to be taken seriously!
@is that necessary it’s called hyperbole. all that stuff is perfectly plausible
@literally... literally the money quote: when I want to party, all I have to do is take a few shots, shove a roll of quarters in my pants, and head over to Carman for some action.”
@southerner you + all = y’all.
