At Quinnipiac, student editors start carving a new path, independently
Rejecting a new structure proposed by administrators, editors discuss creation of independent online newspaper
i am certainly disappointed by the way the quinnipiac administration has been handling this situation. pitiful.
What do you expect? It's a third-tier school. Unfortunately, it happens.
And also, why should we care about this?
Small talk for Toads?
But seriously, they are part of the NH community. I do find it interesting and worthwhile.
"have to endure a long walk from campus to the nearest retail strip, along a busy highway with no sidewalks, no intersection markings, and speeding traffic."
Quinninpiac has shuttle buses that run everyday to the town of Hamden and New Haven.
"What do you expect? It's a third-tier school. Unfortunately, it happens."
Your a snobby, stuck up, yalie... Quinnipiac, though it will never be Ivy league, is an excellent school in its own right.
But on a more important note, I'm glad they finally decided to stand up to the administration, which has been very hypocritical and unfair to its students..
Good thing that "first tier schools" like Yale are entirely devoid of problems and controversy!
Quinnipiac is backwards in many ways. Worse than the Chinese-style crackdown on their own students is the fact that they just don't care about their students' personal safety. Students die every year in car crashes, and have to endure a long walk from campus to the nearest retail strip, along a busy highway with no sidewalks, no intersection markings, and speeding traffic. If Quinnipiac cared about its students and about the community at large, it would be spending a lot more time lobbying the Town of Hamden and State DOT to do something much more quickly.
If anyone at Quinnipiac is reading this, yes, we all know that the state will be installing some signals next year. And we all know that you like to blame every problem on alcohol, which is ridiculous because no matter what you do, students are going to drink.
However, the road "improvements" that Quinnipiac and the Town are making come after 15 years of complaints and student deaths/injuries, and the plan they have developed is grossly inadequate. They also haven't done anything to address the traffic safety issues around the new campus area sitting farther south in Hamden. Which means we'll have to wait another 15 years, and endure the deaths of another few dozen students, before anything is actually accomplished.
