VENT - $$BRIDGE BUCKS$$
If its not enough having to pay $4,000 + per year in tuition, $2,000 + for housing and not to mentions the thousands + on beer. But those lovable University Asshole's decided to make it madatory for all individuals living on campus to purchase $100 per semester in Bridge Bucks.
What are Bridge Bucks you ask... They are the worst method of payment on campus. They act similar to a debit card but you just have to swipe it and automatically you pay for stuff. What kinda stuff? Crappy Stuff!! There are only a few places that even accept them on campus. Coulee Junction, Fresh express and that Mr. Sub/Starbucks place - all of which i may have eaten at 4 times total in the last year. I mean these cards do not work at Subway, Hiroba or Jugo Juice. The only places i even like on campus.
First thing... even if i did eat at those places... i do not need the university to hold my hand to ensure i am going to eat properly. I still have a mother that can nag me over the phone. I rather like shopping and cooking my meals because it forces me to eat healthy. If i wanted to eat shitty deep fried fries and burgers all year then i would eat on campus.
Secondly... who the hell thinks that they can just implement a pathetic new fee whenever they want. I know for a fact that this was not in the contract for me when i signed on. As i remember reading in an email sent from Kim Fowler - it stated that no 4th year students needed to buy Bridge Bucks. Now in a recent email it says that 4th year students also have too.
Thirdly... we as students get raped by Universities all accross the North America already. Why must they continue to have their "Hands in my Pocket".
I plan on having a little chat with Kim Fowler about this today, because im hungry, sleepy, cranky and looking for a fight.
