People work fast here. Meetings are held standing in the hallway. They take no longer than 5 minutes and the debates are very straightforward. The better opinion wins. Staff and students are equal in that sense.
Staff earns more money, though.
Approximately every other day there is a seminar somewhere on the campus where I go to listen. Famous people come here to talk. For example, on February 15 Noam Chomsky will be here to talk. Subjects range from general issues to very technical talks. I love both.
