All of you are heartily invited to eat at the Butler dining room during this time.</span></span></div> <div><span class="223304214-29042008"></span> </div> <div><span class="223304214-29042008"><span style=";font-family:Courier New;font-size:85%;" >Best,</span></span></div> <div><span class="223304214-29042008"><span style=";font-family:Courier New;font-size:85%;" >Laurie</span></span></div><span style="font-family:Arial;"><br /><p align="left"><span style="font-family:georgia;">Noticeably absent from the email: a promise of paw points for the inconvenience.</span></p><p align="left"><span style="font-family:georgia;">It's not that I expect paw points whenever something extremely bothersome occurs, and it's not the University's fault, but I do expect equal treatment. So why is it that students in Whitman received paw points as compensation? I realize that Wu is just a couple steps away from Wilcox. But Whitman Dining Hall isn't actually that far from any other Dining Hall.<br /></span></p><p align="left"><span style="font-family:georgia;"> Additionally, we are bothered for four more meals than those who live in Whitman. And we have to deal with the noise of construction daily, as well as the conversations of the construction workers as early as seven in the morning, as do the kids in Bloomberg and Scully-- but at least they have air conditioning to console them.<br /></span></p><p align="left"><span style="font-family:georgia;">Also absent from the email: an apology.<br /></span></p></span><span id="fullpost"></span>Stephhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12664810625365762408noreply@blogger.com
