Some things never change
July 7, 2008“Dear Mr. Levi!
Congratulations! You have taken my young, beautiful, intelligent, concerned girl and made her into an embittered, alienated woman. This has not been just another step in the maturation process. You have used as a pressure cooker the cold, grey city; the ghetto; the incredible housing; and above all the distant, aloof, and uncaring faculty.”
A letter to University of Chicago President Edward H. Levi, March 10, 1969.
That is as sad as having a house infested with bees. The educational process is so ugly at times. Speaking of, I passed my Capstone. I graduate with my MLIS in under 5 weeks. Try not to let that letter be too true.

Wow. Where did you find that? There must be more of them. Good to know that some things never change (I guess?), because I really thought I must be an exception. And here I thought I was special. ;-)
