RPS not keeping students in mind

By Alyson Brodsy · Friday, Sept. 8,2000 2:12 a.m.

There is one fact everyone on this campus can attest to -- college students have erratic schedules. Yet time and time again, Residential Programs and Services has seemingly ignored this fact in its practices. Just when dorm residents thought they'd achieved some flexibility with the meal plan, RPS changed the hours at its food courts again. Yes, Wright is still open until midnight, but most of the restaurants there now close at 8 p.m., leaving few choices by midnight. And that is only one example.

President's Corner

By Myles Brand · Friday, Sept. 8,2000 1:45 a.m.

Traditionally, IU's president discusses the broad range of opportunities and challenges facing IU in his State of the University address. In this year's speech, which I will give at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Frangipani Room at the Indiana Memorial Union, I plan to break with that tradition. I will instead focus on one issue of utmost importance to this campus, this University and this nation: the future of the arts and humanities.
