Letter to the Editor

To the editor:

I wonder how many of the students complaining so loudly about the back-breaking 15 minute trek from the new bookstore to campus can be found five days a week, with glazed eyes and numbed expressions, running in place on a treadmill at the gym. My friends, there are flowers and birds on the road to Market Street; you will learn things from them that the television monitors and other machinery at the gym cannot teach you, if you will but listen.
