...isn’t just a dream concocted by naïve students. Thanks to the leadership of Chaz M. Beasley ‘08 and Amadi P. Anene ’08, almost all the logistical barriers in C-CAP??€™s implementation have been removed. After a careful study, they came up with the best possible program to tackle the problem of high book costs in the form of stipends for low-income students. They have found a way to implement it that insures the discretion of these students. They have even secured a good deal...
...hopes to plug this financial aid gap by doling out $125 to students with family incomes under $40,000 and $75 to those between $40,000 and $60,000. C-CAP??€™s heart is undoubtedly in the right place, but I am worried about its head...

Using the low estimation of a student’s annual textbook cost, the COOP already makes six million dollars a year off the College. When the better part of C-CAP??€™s proposed $200,000 in handouts reach COOP registers, the price increase will be slight—two percent, maybe even five percent—but an increase in its bottom line nonetheless...

Textbook costs are in need of attention, but if anyone actually cares about the issues of lower-income students, show it by spending a little time thinking rather than giving other people checks to sign. I can beg for handouts myself, thank...
...conflation of CAP and the Owl in mainstream media has been unfortunate. The nature of the two organizations are so dissimilar that the claims of comparability by pundits Rush Limbaugh or Bill O’Reilly were simply nonsensical. Unlike the socially-centered missions of Harvard final clubs, CAP??€™s mission centered on reducing the number of minorities and women to Princeton; that is, the objective was to oust an entire sect of students from admittance. The Owl, especially during Kennedy’s years at Harvard, was a social forum for male students at a school that...
