The Ann Arbor Sucks weblog notes this Michigan Daily article, which documents the outragous prices charged in the University-owned convenience stores. Lest the collective memory forget, it was only a few years ago both South Quad and Bursley had grills serving a wide variety of inexpensive hamburgers, grilled cheese sandwiches, ice cream, and other foods. After an expensive "consultant" hired by housing, the University decided an overpriced, corporate-logo filled convenience store could generate more revenue. (The entire Housing Administration is run as a financially independent unit within the University.) The only place where the grill closings was sucessfully resisted? East Quad.Virginia Tech has reinstated their affirmative action program.

MSU has suspended two after this year's riot ... and the MSU police have posted photos of riot participants on the web.

Last, but not least- James Justin Wilson has issued a "correction" about Andrew Shrivell.
