Maybe you remember my post from two weeks ago, in which I precociously use Principles of Economics knowledge to justify getting sleep. This week, I’m taking misusage of terms to a whole new level: stating Columbia’s facilities are the embodiment of the Tragedy of the Commons. John Jay's restrooms are scary, the dining halls are cramped, and the printing rooms are a war field. Following these commandments will help fix that:
In the John Jay Restrooms
1. Thou shall not puke in the John Jay restrooms unless you plan on disinfecting the vicinity afterwards.
2. When the soap dispenser is out, thou shall install the soap dispenser instead of cutting a chunk of the plastic off and letting the soap/slime leak onto the counter.*
3. Thou shall not leave pistachio shells in the sinks (weird, but I have witnessed this).
4. Thou shall not leave paper towels and puddles on the counter. Why do these two not negate one another?*
