Columbia College sophomores, think of the hours you’ve spent teasing out subtitles of Nietzsche’s will to power and Freud’s Oedipal complex. Now think about fried chicken.

Students across campus are rejoicing over the news that Osama bin Laden is dead. Cheers and shouting were coming from John Jay, and there were cries of “USA! USA!” within Butler.
