Access Denied

The 289 available spots in the new townhouses may have been filled during this year's room selection day on Saturday, April 12, but the housing procedure could not escape controversy.

Students complain that a points requirement for the townhouses was enforced during the beginning of the day, but as other on-campus accommodations filled to capacity later that day, students who would previously have been deemed ineligible were able to gain rooms in the townhouses because building space needed to be filled.

SJU should get its priorities straight

Wed, 23 Apr 2008 04:00:00 GMT

St. John's outdid itself last week and made an administrative move infuriatingly representative of the endemic de-academicization plaguing our University, a move desecrating the symbol of most real universities' source of power, of knowledge: our library. The school is to be removing what I assume to be at least hundreds (but probably thousands) of books from the intellectual center of our University in order to build temporary offices.

For St. John's athletics, another year is nearly in the books and, while the teams saw their share of ups and downs, the collective overall standing of the programs is something to commend. As I embark on putting forth my final piece of wisdom to The Torch, I have graded each team's performance this season and, as much as it pains me to admit it, the grades are generally better than my own.
