Carbondale Bytelife

Interesting thread of comments regarding academic quality at SIUC on the DE's website, though I found some of the language annoying. I understand how obscenities can slip out in heated conversation but when you're typing them out...? Anyhow the last few posts regarding customer service (or lack thereof) at SIUC (and Carbondale as a whole) were pretty sad. Brought to mind a conversation I had with a business owner (long since closed) in town about 15 years ago who commented they liked the students' money but wished the students themselves would go away. Maybe that attitude is why they're a long since closed business?

Hat tip to Peter the Great.
