In 2008, US News ‘ World Report ranked Boston University as the 57th best university in the country. In 2009, BU will have 57 Starbucks on campus. Yes, we are college students and addicted to coffee, but come on, really? For such a reputable and respected school to completely disregard the desires of its own student body shows the disconnect BU’s administration is famous for. We spoke in January, and we will speak again — the student body needs to be part of this process. Make the decision making at Dining Services a collaborative and transparent process with the students. Yo quiero . . . options.
