Alumni speaks out

It seems that Cabrini hasn't changed a bit since I graduated from there several years ago, except that the food is probably worse.

I can long remember eating rock hard grilled cheese wrapped in tin foil, chicken breasts that never, ever look like they had been fully cooked, meatloaf (that looked, smelled, and tasted all too much like dog food), desserts that usually sat out on the rack for days at a time, fruit that was nine times out of 10 rotten or just about rotten, and well you get the point. The list can just go on and on.

Consider this, have you ever seen or heard of someone at Cabrini actually gaining the freshmen 15? My advice to you and the rest of the students at Cabrini is to not waste your time trying to complain to the faculty and staff about how bad WOOD Dining Service is. Instead, do something that each graduating class before wishes they had done, report them to the Better Business Bureau, or the FDA.

The faculty's lack of concern about a lot of issues is exactly why many alumni, myself included, refuse to ever send a penny to Cabrini.

And to President Iadarola:

Can you tell me why Cabrini still spends money building more dorms instead of finally renovating, updating, and buying new books in the library?

It would have been nice to have gone to a college that would have built us a state-ofthe-art library for learning purposes instead of a state-ofthe-art sports complex. But hey, maybe I'm the only one in my class that came to Cabrini to learn and not play sports.

The power of voice

Dear Cabrini Community, Some of you may know me and some may not. I am Ryan Norris, junior class president of the Student Government Association. I am writing to you to inform you of how powerful your voice is and what happens when your voice is not heard.

At the last open SGA meeting, the SGA board members voted in a landslide decision to hold the Winter Formal this year as a fundraiser. l was a chairperson of the very first Winter Formal last year, which took place at the Marriot Hotel in Philadelphia. I feel that this event, being so formal and fancy, should be solely for the Cabrini Community, and its purpose should not be to raise money.

In case you are confused, if the tickets happen to cost $50 per person, the SGA will be raising the price and using the extra money as profit. That's not an.
