Post Letter: We don't decide 'art'
Nov. 14, 2010Mr. Hathaway. I am like you. I didn't get the Purple Wedding to the Mountains, either. And admittedly, I didn't go to the ceremony, or exhibits. But unlike you, far be it from me to declare that something isn't art just because I don't get it. Or to question what the department does with its money. As much as you may worry that the university is prioritizing (Heaven forbid!) art over sports, that's not exactly what happened.

Post Letter: OU learning communities are proof of poor money handling
Nov. 10, 2010Hey, President McDavis! Riddle me this: Why is it that Ohio University sees it fit to spend more than $14,000 on concerts and food for freshman with similar interests? Excuse me if I sound bitter, but as a person who completely supports themselves financially; rent, tuition and all, and who works more than 50 hours a week to be able to afford to take classes off-and-on each quarter, it's disgusting to see a group of 50 or more students come through the Chipotle line getting burritos filled with double meat, extra gaucamole, chips and drinks, totaling more than $95 in food; paid for in full with a card budgeted by Ohio University. Four learning communities have come through Chipotle this week alone buying food with money Ohio University has budgeted them. Other people have told me that OU paid for their Learning Community to attend an Afroman concert.
