Local issue

Sovi. The freshman dining experience that boasts great selection and fresh quality of its food. Having been to the Perch and seen its feckless care of things, i was all too ready to try out Sovi. First sign was the odd, parallel AND limited parking offered. The second we circled the stations offering various foods we also noticed the waiting lines behind them. So many students all choosing to eat at Sovi all choose to wait ten minutes for their petite-sized meals. What happened to 'they're growing kids!" Just when you think all is not lost and opt for the cereals, there is no milk. So you switch your course to the ice cream machines and grab for the absent cones...throw up your arms and leave.

state/nat'l issue

Immigration has been a rising issue facing Florida since the early 60s. With the waves and waves of both legals and many more illegals, our social order has been thrown out of whack, taking hits to social security and taxation mostly. I personally think as a nation born from immigrants seeking freedom, we should extend our help to those seeking the 'american dream', and not just turn them away becasue of sour feelings. I do believe however, we should focus on limiting those crossing our borders to ensure their legality and helping those illegals to get their citizenship as well.
