Freshman Kelsey Rohwer, a Hatchet columnist, points out that GW often lets the smallest improvements to campus life go unchanged.

I often fear for my life as I embarrassingly teeter on the stones outside Funger and Duques. I feel like I am going to fall through the earth. This is not okay.

Most of the University’s issues brought up by GW students and The Hatchet are substantial and take some time to fix. But in the midst of these demanding issues is the “small stuff” – those little annoying problems such as the seesawing sidewalks near Funger and the oceans (well, large pools of water) that form most inconveniently in University Yard. This and other problems continue to exist, but are easily fixable, and are therefore worth addressing now.
