Student seating fairest option

I had to reach into my backpack and pull out some tissues to wipe the tears off my face after reading Lucie Enns’ letter to the editor about sorority block seating. The tissues I used were to wipe the tears of laughter.

As John Stossel would say, give me a break. Does Ms. Enns realize how absurd she sounds? There’s plenty of seating in the student section; she just wants to sit with the greeks. Is it really that hard to find friends who don’t have dates and sit with them in the student section?

I agree with Enns that she, and others, should have the same opportunity to watch the football game. The place is the student section along with the rest of us. Suck it up and stop whining; it won’t get you any dates.
