OUR VIEWS: Consensus Opinion

This week the Undergraduate House of Representatives of Student Government Association was given a rare preview of a bill that will be up for consideration in a few weeks. A presentation was made explaining a request for $225,000 of Student Activity Fees to fund renovations and updates on the Tech Rec bowling lanes, specifically the pin setters that keep the lanes functional.

Wasteful spending runs rampant

On Tuesday evening this week, I was walking back from having dinner at Ribs’n’Blues in Tech Square to my humble apartment on Peachtree when I noticed an awkward situation unfolding in front of the College of Management building. A guy was dropping his friend off and had pulled into one of the metered spaces and one of Georgia Tech’s lovely parking attendants (aka meter maids) was standing outside of the student’s car, waving his hands and yelling, trying to get the young man’s attention.

Language skills limit awkward silences

One of the few regrets that I still have from my childhood is that I never learned Chinese, and when I had a chance to learn, I never really took the opportunity very seriously. Being ethnically Chinese, it would seem pretty obvious why I felt so bad about not learning the language. It’s simply because I’m neglecting my background and distancing myself from my cultural roots. That’s stupid. It’s asinine to think that I would need to validate my Chineseness to myself or anyone else.

Tech college career inspires above-average mediocrity

What do you do in a typical day of your life? If you are anything like me, you might wake up (inevitably late), shower and run off to class. Later, you might do homework, go to another class, participate in an extracurricular activity or hang out with friends. Later still, perhaps you go to a party or on a date.
