...ahead: play that fourth game of beer pong. Ignore those handy tips in the dining hall telling you to use a clean plate each time you get seconds—the administration is just trying to trick you into not getting swine flu. Did you know that H1N1 rooms come with full room service? Maybe next time you’ll think twice before stopping at the Purell dispenser. Rumor has it that isolation chambers might even receive the occasional hot breakfast...
...risk of voicing what I know to be the unpopular position, let me say once and for all: I hated FOP. Every grimy, sweaty, exhausting, hungry moment of it.

...your breakfast? LSM: Eh. It’s gonna be pretty much the same everyday. RR: Personal issue here for me... I’m from the South and an admitted grits lover. Even when they had hot breakfast, they never had grits. Do you even know what grits are? LSM: Is that that pink stuff? RR: (Look of horror. Sadly shakes head.) Christine Wu ’12, Adams RR: Being a varsity volleyball player, how have the cutbacks of hot breakfast affected you after your morning practices? CW: Well, we don’t have many morning workouts...
