True, but more drastic action is needed to get circulation in order. The Quad problems seem particularly chronic. Almost every day, piles of newspapers sit in the corner of the dining halls. Perhaps the maintenance workers who deliver The Crimson need more direct supervision. Students have come to expect The Crimson at their doors every morning, and many of us rely on it to find out what is going on around campus. Student groups use it to advertise, expecting that all undergraduates will receive the paper.
Everyone at The Crimson needs to be concerned about circulation. Alexakis sums up the issue perfectly: "We can improve the paper as much as we want, but if no one gets it..."
Exactly.
