I am a minority student, and 20 percent of the activities at the University should be for minorities, because that's the appropriate percentage of students who are minorities. This talk of having the Informal Lounge become a minority center really isn't good. I mean, people should hang out with each other, it's not a good idea to have minorities all together. It will become like a ghetto, and you don't want that.

There are a lot of great people running around, really staying fit and really working their bottoms, running around Grounds. However, my question is, is where are they running to?

I'd just like to report an incident that happened the other day in the dining hall, when I was trying to get an apple from the food location there. A girl standing next to me proceeded to fill up her entire Vera Bradley bag with fruit: pears, apples, oranges, about ten items of fruit, and she was taking all the really good fruit. And I kept wondering what was going to happen, and if this was the reason why we never have any fruit in the dining hall. And I was wondering if this was an honor offense, if there could be anything done about this by the dining hall staff.

I work in an office situation, and I found that some of my colleagues have paired themselves as best buddies. Frankly, I found this to be rather impolite as some of us, maybe because we're not as attractive, have a little bit of a harder time finding a best buddy. For example, I know this one guy who asked like six people, and they all rejected him for being best buddy, and so I just feel like maybe people who have best buddies should be a little more subtle about it, not be shouting across the office "Hey best buddy," "Hey best buddy."
