Though I originally wanted to attend school here, some days I would wonder why that was. My father kept getting SIUE confused with Carbondale when I was trying to enroll here. Today was one of those days when I wondered if I should have gone to Carbondale. After all, the newspaper there has a printing press and a building. Such a boring little school we have here, I would think some days.
Nothing ever happens.
When I arrived at the University Center to cover the speech, a group of women and a few men were standing in front of the building dressed in green and white. They all had on shiny white buttons and were passing out fliers. Oddly enough, I wasn't given one. Normally, I'm a flier magnet. My stomach rumbled because I hadn't eaten breakfast as I made my way to the Meridian Hall.
