Congratulations Stranger staff writers, If taken seriously this article could possibly save thousands, if not millions of wasted education dollars, and just might lead instead, to a lifetime of personal fulfillment, and happiness.

Well Played

Word to SPU. You guys got me through 4 years with news from the real world!

OW-- my brain just went supernova, then collapsed into a massive black hole... Time for that other college maxim: it's always a good time for a beer...

"Mozart's period is the classical period, and thus the correct meaning of the term "classical music" is music made from about 1750 to 1820 (Mozart lived from 1756 to 1791). Therefore, saying "classical music" when you simply mean nonpopular music is the equivalent of saying "modern art" when you mean new art."

Well, actually its the 'Classical' (capital C) period Mr. Smarm...

You forgot to mention the small percentage of art students that go to the Art Institute of Seattle. I am less appalled at the exclusion because the majority of that student body is made up of rich kids just going to school to "try it out". If mommy and daddy weren't footing the bill to this I'm sure as fuck you would be like ME and actually pay attention in class.

Oh no! Guys! You forgot Evergreen! I know it's not in Seattle proper, but it's pretty important. You know, for the hippie element... and if you decide you don't want to go to college, but your parents demand you do so.

Under "Everything there is to know about Economics" You forgot to mention "there is no such thing as a free lunch" and "Supply and Demand". These oversights reveal that you actually don't know anything about Economics. Also, you left out Sociology and Geology- my major and minor.

Supply and Demand - when bankers who want to make a lot of money SUPPLY the market with an onslaught of bad loans, they DEMAND the common taxpayer bail them out.

And because they're rich and important, they require expensive lunches which you also have to pay for. There's no such thing as a free lunch when it comes to bailing out wealthy bankers.

SPU has been sadly overlooked in this article. It deserves more than a religious quip and a plug for your newspaper (even if the The Stranger is the ultimate guide to life). If anyone needs college guidance in this city it is the sad few non-Christians who attend this school.
Congratulations students, you have decided to spend outrageous amounts of money for a wasteful education at an institution you will soon find is riddled with corruption and equality violations. My advice, get out now. the sooner the better, before you sit through 15 credits of mandatory Christianity courses. If you are like me and you find reasons to stay (friends, Seattle, HUMP film fest) here are some tips.
Get involved in Lingua arts journal or KSPU where you can meet people who aren't ruled by an imaginary friend. Also, if you are LGBT and find yourself on this Christ-lovin campus, Haven (the GSA group that is discriminated against and denied club status by the administration) is your best bet to find some ass on campus. Also, SPU has the legal right to search your property and drug test you at any time, so don't try and sneak a bowl in your room at 2 am. There's a graveyard behind Ashton Hall that is perfect for all anti-Lifestyle Expectations activities. As often as possible escape from the dorms and go across the canal to Fremont Coffee, get a cafe, go to the back porch and soak up the dregs of September sun. Other than that, Good luck with UFND 2000: Scripture Foundations.

art institute? so much crap that you could write about that one.

i even slept with my info design professor there, holler if you need a hand with the write up!

why why why the SAME OLD SAME OLD year after year? Such a boring article - as usual. Another reason I count my blessings that I finally left the small-minded little outpost of Seattle.
