OUR VIEWS Hot or Not

HOT: Remarkable Relay

Tech has a strong tradition of community service, and the annual campus Relay for Life event is an important part of this tradition. The Tech community raised $65,000, an amount which was matched by a Tech alum at the Atlanta Cancer Coalition. This $130,000 will go toward cancer research at our own Institute. It's great that Tech can contribute both money and research to fighting cancer.

NOT: Dead week?

It seems as if we were just thinking this four months ago, but dead week sucks. It's about time that we stopped calling dead week "dead," because it's the busiest week of the semester. Professors can't enjoy frantically grading assignments any more than we enjoy completing them. So why bother? With tests, papers and group projects galore, nothing will run a student ragged quite like next week will.

HOT: Sting 'em!

During this stressful time of year, nothing could cheer up the most loyal Yellow Jackets more than once again proving our superiority to our rivals from Athens-as if there was ever any doubt. The baseball team crushed the Bulldogs on Wednesday with a score of 8-2. How 'bout them Dawgs now? Go Jackets!

NOT: Failed policy

SGA has once again failed to pass the Student Activity Fee (SAF) policy, which means it has been over a year since the last revision. A new policy is important to ensure that Joint Finance Committee policies are more than just guidelines, making the SAF allocation process fair to all students.
