Students may recall a recent survey conducted by the Housing and Residence Life at Appalachian State University asking our opinion of an increase in housing costs for 2010. 

The survey stated on-campus housing would inevitably increase by $200 to provide funding for the renovation of Coffey Residence Hall. 

Of the increase, $100 would be put toward the cost of living, with the other $100 as means for Coffey’s renovation.

There are green wreaths hanging in Cascades Café, large snow flake-shaped lights lining King Street, Christmas tunes playing on select radio stations and eight days till Thanksgiving.

Can anyone please tell me what’s wrong with this picture?

Is it the fact there are precisely 36 days till Christmas, eight days till Thanksgiving, and as a society we are paying more attention to the holiday that is furthest off instead of the one that is right around the corner?
