As a junior living off campus, and a general non-participant in most of the things that I'm FORCED to pay for with the Student Activity Fee, it warms my heart that there's SOMETHING it pays for that I can appreciate. Wash U students have generally reconciled their negative views on the fee; leave it alone I agree with Dione.

Happy Hour is not just a place to get wasted from 4-530 in the afternoon, nay it is a meeting place of friends, family, B&D, and people who normally work in Bear's Den. Take a piece of the social pie, Brent - it tastes real good. Brent sweetie, this is your mother telling you to stop being such a [expletive deleted].

Take away Margaret Cho if you feel the need to be so fiscally conservative. The student body needs beer. Everybody loves it. Dont take away beer.

It will gauge students feelings on Happy Hour and several other pertinent issues on campus. I'll be sure to post the results. -Brent Dione-

But half of students ARE over 21 and CAN drink. No event at this school caters to the likes/needs/wants of all students. If Happy Hour caters to half of students, it should be praised. Luckily, CPC also provides food and entertainment, which opens up the event for the rest of the student body. This is an event where all students are welcome - and that should be appreciated and commended. Happy Hour is fulfilling a special niche on our campus - providing a safe environment for students to relax after a (presumably) hard week of work. For some students, that relaxation includes beer, and for some it doesn't - but whether it does or not does not influence whether a student can attend this fun (and needed) events.
