So, sometimes I think going to Princeton is pretty sweet. You know, sort of “Ivy League” and what not. And then there are other times when I’m like: “This school just does NOT get it.”
- No wireless.
- Waiting in line and getting registered for classes with a pencil.
- Waiting for months (read=MONTHS!) before getting exams, papers and GRADES back after finals.
I could go on, but I just got this email from someone on staff at PTS, and was like: “Wow, we’re all pretty smart here at Princeton…” This was the subject line:

Wow that sucks pretty bad. I go to Portland STATE University in Oregon, and we have wireless in all but the most remote classrooms.
You know Adam, you are welcome to go to another school that will supply all of your technological needs. Maybe you would like to graciously give up your scholarship so that your school could get wireless. Outside of that what else could you do?
Gee…. Sound just like Candler. Without the snow. And occasionaly with the bong. And beer.
