Bursar’s Office Ups Tax on Absent-Minded People
Cornell has made another bold move in its fight to eradicate Forgetful Freddies this semester, increasing the cost of replacing Cornell Student Identification Cards from $25 to $35. Students are predictably outraged about having to shell out enough money to buy 2.5 handles of Barton’s for a freaking shiny piece of plastic with your face on it, and administrators may face protests and angry drunken messages.
“I am dismayed and outraged by this new cost increase,” said one student who happens to be myself. ”What’s next–$6 for a sandwich at Trillium?”
Some university administrators attempted to construct flimsy excuses defending the change, citing the expensive materials and skilled labor needed to produce Cornell IDs. “The ID department has been in the red for years,” said some lady at the office.”Mostly because of the first replacement ID is free.”
Pseudo-fake newsing aside, THIS IS SO FREAKING ANNOYING.
