School has been busy/sometimes not busy. Blah blah blah. Ten bucks says you’re not interested.
However, I want to let you in on one of the rumors that has been flying around the Big 10. Due to the current state of the economy, universities are hemorrhaging at the seams. Purdue’s doing pretty bad, from what I hear (not just on the gridiron). Interestingly, my sources close within the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (which happens to be doing better than us, by the way), tell me that Illinois is seriously considering taking extreme measures to cut costs temporarily. They are in talks to delay the start of the spring semester by 2 weeks! This would minimize heating/energy, maintenance, etc. costs during the coldest parts of the year. How crazy is that — a 5 week Christmas break? Since Purdue is doing worse, I’m hoping we at least get the same! That’s like 10 snow days in a row!! Party at my place!!! (kidding)
Oh, by the way, my old organic chemistry professor just cured SARS.
