He pushed through the end of the semester and now has such a severe case of RSI that he must use a foot mouse and can only type about one sentence before feeling pain. McDermott told me, "If I knew then what I know now, I would have just quit, and taken the rest of the semester off."

...constrained not only by a student publication budget, but also by a paucity of sports writers. Also, the paper depends solely on the University Sports Information Department for listings, results and statistics of all sporting events. "When [the SID] doesn't cover an event, getting the stats is a pain, and we just don't have the means," says Crimson president Matthew Granade...
