Minor thread jack:
I see this EVERYDAY as I go to a private Uni in Colorado (named after it's Capitol City if you care to guess) that is known for it's Business School and that Condi Rice is it's most notable alum (Michelle Kwan is currently a student here because we have an Olympic size ice rink).
I've listened in (inadvertantly mind you) on a girl complaining she lost her Scholarship to Study Abroad because of being caught on campus drunk (she was 19 at the time) and in the same breath went on to talk about how the Halloween party she went to only had beer, no hard liquor and she can't be lowered to drinking beer.
I've been told, to my face upon suggesting that we just suck it up and deal with the Music Majors during the Musical Production (I'm a theatre major) because it's our chosen profession and you'll find that in EVERY JOB you'll EVER HAVE, "I don't pay $40K a year to be told to deal with it." Seriously?! I can guarantee that kid doesn't pay that much, but rather scholarships and his parents do. Blerg.
On the other hand, we do have such Core classes as "Harry Potter and Esotericism" and "The Birth of Rock & Roll" so I guess I can't complain too much.
