Yes

I am currently browsing JStor for an article, and I just came accross an article titled: "Are Columbian Street Children Neglected?"
I have not read this artcile, but I would think that the answer is: "Yes"

The End of Six Semesters

Amazingly enough, I came to YU early today, Sunday, in order to get a full day of work in.
The security guards were late to open up the library today and I found myself among the group of 10 or so people waiting to get in. Included in these people was Rabbi J.J. Schacter, not bad.
When I got to 5A, I was the first one on the floor, even before Moster and the guy who sits next to him.
So, I guess that as I enter into my last weeks of school I really have become pretty studious.

Elevator Pt. 2

Anyhow, today once again, I was in the elevator going down to the lobby from the 5A floor of the library. And once again, as in the first story, our elevator personality entered on the fourth floor. If I recall correctly, although it was several hours ago now, when he entered he immediately pushed the button to close the door.
Then, the elevator stopped on 2A, and before the door even opened the "door open" button had been pushed several times by this individual. It so happened, that nobody entered from 2A, and when this person noticed that, he began to press both the button for the lobby as well as the "door closed" button. Now I have seen people press the door closed button before, or the button of the floor that they need to go to, but I think that this is the first time that i have seen both at once.
Now did anyone ever notice that pressing those buttons does absolutely nothing?
We are not yet done. When we reached the lobby and the doors cracked open, he essentially put on this act as if he were trying to squeeze sideways through the smallest opening between the doors. I mean come on, that is just completely pointless. By the time he put on the act the doors were already wide open. It doesn't exactly take an hour for elevator doors to go from barely open to completely open.
okay.

What Is This?


What is with the headphones that go behind your head as opposed to on top or just in the ears? They are so uncomfortable. You have to keep your head totally straight, otherwise the back of the headphones get stuck in your shirt. It makes for a slightly frustrating experience.

I Don't Really Understand


Today I was in the elevator in the library going from 5A down to the lobby. The elevator stopped on the 4th floor and a woman entered into the elevator in a big rush. She then pressed the button for 3A and was extremeluy impatient to get out of the elevator. I was simply wondering, that if she was in such a trmendous rush, why didn't she just take the stairs down that one flight? She probably would have gotten there faster and would have saved me the two extra stops on the way down.
