Conversation about the University President.



The other month I ran into this older (white) woman who I know who somehow studies at the University and who is a very lovely person and who haunts the library and who lives poorly, and who always tries to get free food around campus.

She asked me how my op-ed was going on the President, and when I told her some new details and figures, she was like, “He is bleeding this place dry!”, and then she went on for a few minutes listing all the ways he wasn’t doing well by the institution.

Then, she took a breath and paused, and started up again, and was like, “And have you been to a reception lately?  The food is terrible!”, and then started going on again from there.
