...borrow a phrase from a friend, "the Undergraduate Council is atrocious." Or rather, it has proved its atrociousness in the recent Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) debacle, a debacle that, sadly, the campus has forgotten in its two-second attention span, a debacle that Dean Lewis, thankfully, recently quashed by indicating that ROTC's return to campus is nowhere near imminent.
