The Undergraduate Council wants a student center. They've even earmarked a good $25,000 of last year's found funds to go towards its creation. But for once, the council's not just huffing and puffing its own air--the student on the street wants the center too. She wants office space, he wants big-screen TVs, and, goshdarnit, they want a place to party! While FM supports these demands (and oh-so-many more), we'd like to suggest the following community-friendly additions to the plan:
* jukebox to muffle the sounds of Kroks, Pitches, Callbacks and the like
* tanning booth for pasty New Englanders
* posturepedic settees to soothe RSI victims
* stacks of undelivered FMs
* Clinique consultants on call for Cabot library moles
* merry-go-round for Crimson Keyers
* C'est Mal, a Room 13-sponsored coffee bar
FM would also appreciate:
* two-way mirrors
* inflatable MoonWalk
* inflatable e-mail kiosks
* inflatable ping pong table
* red line T stop
* shrinky-dinks station, complete with stove
* Lester Lanin
* astroturf
* petting zoo
* jumbo floor-mat keyboard
* lasers, all kinds
* methadone
Should the administration bemoan a lack of space, they're lying. Here follow five expendable sites:
*Harvard Information Booth, Holyoke Center's tourist mecca
* Currier, source of blocking terror
* Canaday Hall, Yard eyesore
* the Porc, clearly University property
* Lamont Library, current student social center
