The Positives:

I have to say that I am really glad that the university is taking time to introduce newly accepted students to on campus events before they actually get here. For those of you who didn’t know, an “Accepted Student’s Concert” was held in the German Club on February 18, 2011, and it was a great time to say the least.

So, as you all know, I have been complaining for a while about having to pay for housing during summer courses, especially if that is the only time they are being offered and you must take them to complete your major. Well, I just recently heard from a reliable source that that’s about to change. Let’s keep our fingers crossed.

The Negatives:

So I thought we where past this cold snap, but just as I was ready to pull my motorcycle out of storage and go out cruising in my leather jacket, I am stuck driving my PT-cruiser due to this ridiculous weather.

I heard that starting the beginning of next semester, even if you live in Soundview next year, you will be forced to purchase a meal plan. As of right now, residents living in apartments with a stove are not required to purchase a mean plan. But if this changes, I can see people having a problem with this.

The Battery Charge:

Okay, so I think it’s unfair that we are forced to buy meal plans in the first place, but I think that it’s even worse that we are forced to buy one if we live in a residence hall that has an stove. I mean, I love to cook, but frankly the C-Store does not carry nearly enough for me to be able to cook all I want. So, if I was to have a meal plan, it would be almost a complete waste of money for me. That’s $2,000 down the drain, and josh does not like that.
