Students will try anything. Maybe even buying black-market shower heads. The first time workers tried to remedy the problem it didn t work, so Northeastern must go at it in a manner that will be more efficent. Some of the most important moments for a college student are in the morning when they sniff the Irish Spring and drown their face against the pattering of water. If you take away that pleasure, you start the student s day off wrong.
Angry students equal non-productive students.
What Northeastern should do to repay these suffering students with flat tops is to let the nozzles flow with juice, soda and the like. That way, they at least don t have to leave the premises for a cold drink. Or NU could have spare coins come out of the faucet. Seriously, we believe that substandard water pressure is a concern in a building that costs so much. But it s not life or death.
