...this leaves one mired in something of a quagmire. The MAC is woefully sub-par. Renovating it is, supposedly, a priority for the administration.

Just before Nike made its first appearance at the Coop in 2001, a factory that produces college gear for the company was reported to be shamelessly abusing its workers, from paying sub-minimum wages to denying access to bathrooms, and illegally firing hundreds who went on strike to demand they be treated like human beings. The conditions at Nike’s Kukdong factory in China were uncovered by the Workers’ Rights Consortium (WRC). When their report on Kukdong was released, universities belonging...
