I think there's a lot of us with these same questions.

45 Questions I Have for Washington & Jefferson College
RAMWEB

1. Is there any way you can schedule more senior overnights because the school serves really good food when there are potential students on campus?

2. Speaking of food, what happened to the seasoned waffle fries at G&T's?

3. Or, what happened to seasonings in general--even just some salt and pepper?

4. And when you bring the seasoned waffle fries back, can we have more than four?

5. Can we have more taco days at the student bar?

6. Can there be a late night, campus-sponsored pizza delivery service for a meal swipe so that I can stop wasting my money off-campus?

7. Can we get fresher fruit?

8. Or, how about some coffee at the barista that isn't just flavored water?

9. How about the hot chocolate?

10. Is there a more efficient way to cart clean dishes around than on the tiles in the dining hall?

11. Same with the ice cooler for the barista?

12. Why do our meal swipes get us so little at the barista, but we can eat as much as we want in the Commons?

13. Why do we have to sacrifice our first born to be able to afford a bag of chips at the barista?

14. I understand that the Wi-Fi problem is more complex, but why can I never connect to the Wi-Fi when I need to?

15. Why does the air conditioning never work in the academic buildings in the hot months and the heat never works in the cold?

16. Why is Olin arguably the most unappealing building to look at despite it being the building for the arts?

17. Why are there so many wind tunnels on campus?

18. Why does it seem like I am always walking uphill?

19. Speaking of walking around campus, why is the cobblestone loose?

20. Why is Chestnut Street spoken about but not shown on campus tours?

21. Isn't a thriving Greek community a potential lure for some prospective students?

22. When will the new addition to the gymnasium be finished?

23. How about the renovation on the library?

24. Will graduating seniors even be able to use it to its fullest potential before they leave?

25. Why are we permitted to use certain buildings as study spaces but most rooms suited for such studying are locked by a certain time?

26. Why do students feel compelled to use available study spaces as areas to hang out and carry on with friends?

27. Seriously, how many energy drinks do they consume?

28. Don't they know that energy drinks have adverse effects on their health?

29. How loud can we turn up our music to try to tune out these people before our hearing becomes permanently damaged?

30. Will our professors understand if we can no longer hear because of the aforementioned issue?

31. Why is our Health Services office not open 24/7?

32. Are we only supposed to get sick Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 5:00pm?

33. What about the parking situation?

34. Can we stop ticketing upperclassmen for parking illegally and instead focus on the freshmen stealing upperclassmen spots, causing us to have to park illegally?

35. Can we get another parking lot to supplement the spots taken away for the new tennis courts?

36. Why does it sound like Old Main is talking to us when the heat gets turned on?

37. Why are the stairs in Old Main so much harder to climb than the stairs literally anywhere else on campus?

38. Are they punishment for our sins?

39. Why do the printers at the Tech Center never work?

40. And, while we're at it, why do we have to pay for color printing?

41. Like, don't we pay enough with our $56,000+ annual bill (and climbing)?

42. Speaking of money, why wasn't some of the donated money appropriated to fixing the abandoned buildings on campus?

43. Don't Lazear and Thistle deserve some love and affection?

44. Wouldn't it be cool to not have to have an English class in Swanson Science Center?

45. Or, should we rename it to Swanson Science & English Center?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
