By removing them you committed an of vandalism. se most reprehensible part of your actions lat by removing the labels you deDrived a i student of easy use of the elevators. Blind ents have enough trouble getting around on campus without the mischief of childish iksters. The blind would prefer to be able to ninor things themselves. To operate an ator without having to ask for assistance is important to many blind students. The lie labels give these students the opunity to use the elevators as efficiently as led students. le labels will be replaced. If you have any iideration at all for your fellow human gs you will leave them alone. If vou havp no i consideration, stay under your rock. You not be missed. I es again that I am prestige.

Since old-fashioned to whom places like Oxford, Cambridge, worldwide and Trinity do not really have economic programs for practical v business students, I would like | to propose the establishment of a similar Droeram tn allnu; these students an outlet for < i, travel and the opportunity to practice their profession (which is after all the oldest profession in the world). I would suggest the creation of a 7 Junior year inbroad program, which would allow students to set up various businesses in the campus community to serve students ana gain experience. I Average students could set up hot dog stands around campus 7 enabling them to gain valuable < , experience such as, determining which cheap brands are most commonly associated with food poisoning, or which ?I brands are still sellable after - \ the greatest length of time unrefrigerated, etc. Advanced V | students could exnprimpnt \\ with more authentic analogues j| from the business world. Gangs of management majors I could roam the campus intimidating solitary pedestrians # into buying T-shirts, accounting majors could steal books from the book drop in the Russell House and keep careful | records of trnncanHAno l|l determine what books are I most profitably stolen, and so on.
