...undersigned" still talks louder than all of Lehman Hall's claims that it is "primarily concerned with supplying adequate food to all students at the lowest prices." University Business Manager Aldrich Durant can explain over and over again that undergraduate opinion was consulted through the Student Council before the present "take it or leave it" plan was put through.
