Finn Klauber 1

engineering student council
esc
GS is part of our school in a way unlike Barnard
next thing you know they're gonna start only using the term """Barnumbia"""
seriously though you're not elected to open up our school's dorms to other schools
stop trying to merge our schools it never works
ugh why does Izzet want to give access to our dorms to non-Columbia students?
way less exciting than CCSC meeting on Sunday
