Maple Finally Paved, Students Rejoice
After months and months of construction, inconvenience, and awkward sexual advances, Maple Avenue is finally good and paved between Emerson and Foster. No one really seems to be able to pinpoint what they were doing in the first place, although sewer work is a popular response.

Construction Workers Try to Build Confidence, Fail.
                                  Even if you look like this, don't hit on the students.

The only thing worse than the ridiculous amount of construction on and off campus this year are the horrible by-products associated with it: noise, dirt, and construction workers.
