As a student living in Rose Main, it was enlightening to hear about the issues residents of the gothics are facing, particularly with bathrooms. It puts the rather minor problems we have in Main in perspective. I was glad to hear that Professor Blalock is very willing to be our voice and take any complaints to the highest levels of the administration (and that he has successfully done so in the past). I’m looking forward to seeing some of the proposals we came up with for future activities, such as the meetings with maintenance and Chef Hans, get put into practice.

Another takeaway is that Bethe House generally has more science-oriented speakers, for anyone who is interested.
