Written by Brandon Lowden, Columnist

    Pianos? Drains? What about something like how elitist the Street is, or how apathetic the student body is, or how unwelcome the campus is to cultural diversity, or how inane the Prince opinions page is? I could think of at least a dozen genuinely troubling aspects of Princeton in a heartbeat that would be far more worth mentioning than the piano in Frist.

    Hey everyone!

    First, a general note: My INTENDED title was "Five things I hate about University." Unfortunately, the word "the" was added, making the title sound like an actual expression of righteous anger rather than the lighthearted movie reference I wanted.

    @'12: Ah, crap! How did I forget about those???

    @'10: Thank you very much!

    So long, Brandon. The opinions page will be so much less funny next year.

    I'm entertained that the security word is "stage." How fitting.

    @'12 - You kind of missed the point.

    @Brandon - Sad to see you go. Two more years of Princeton with a little less humor in them. Maybe you can contribute some funny online comments to the particularly inane articles? That seems to be the trend for alumni these days.
