Coal to the student who was reprimanded for reaching over the counter to grab french fries at Josiah's - and then was caught doing it again a few minutes later. You, sir, are the reason that Jo's remains a classy establishment.
Speaking of class, cubic zirconium to Paul Bourgeois, captain of the new Trader Joe's store that just opened in Warwick, for bringing Brown students a place to exchange their parents' surplus wages for your delicious, organic commodities. Nonworking men and women of all dormitories, unite!
Coal to Residential Council's decision not to give pass-fail evaluations to program houses anymore. What will you do now, make course performance reports available? This is a dangerous assault on the New Curriculum.
A diamond to the members of the football team who were among the more than 200 people bench-pressing on the Main Green to raise $22,500 for the American Cancer Society. Now that you have those free pink T-shirts, could you consider retiring your Thete Spring Weekend shirts?
Coal to Providence Police Officer Noel Field, who told us, "Some of (the Thayer Street loiterers), I don't know how else to describe it - they're characters. They have mohawks." Now now, didn't you learn in police sensitivity training not to judge a suspect by his hairdo?
Cubic zirconium to Ripon College in Wisconsin, which gave 170 of its freshmen bicycles in exchange for their pledges not to bring cars to school. Environmentalism is admirable, but are the bikes really being put to good use? As one student said, she likes to "go riding across town to the prairie."
A diamond to the John McCain blow-up doll in a Chapin House suite. Now "F*ck McCain" is more realistic than ever.
Cubic zirconium to the Brown University Community Council for its support for a discussion on whether to recognize Columbus Day. Just in time, too: With 345 days left until the next one, there's barely enough time for the University to establish a joint commission, a task force, a special council, a community forum and a MyCourses discussion and voting page to make the final call.
A diamond to DPS, which found a "greenish/brownish substance in a clear bag" during a housing inspection this week. According to the crime log, "The pipe and the green leafy substance were taken back to department headquarters, where a field test was conducted." This Halloween, DPS gets a treat too.
