The recent cramming and jamming of my papers in one week has gotten me thinking about the way in which I act responsibly not only as a student but as a healthy indivudla. As I leave the library, I often think of those hwo pull all nighters or who suffer the caffeine addiction in order to "get through" the coursework. It pains me to hear that so many college students feel pressure to take prescription drugs in order to "succeed". Many of my friends included look to artificial sources or quick fixes in order to finish their tasks. What do you think has happened to our generation that has caused this so called need for speed?

We say that this needless extravagance and wastefulness can and will be stopped. Join us in working to reduce the amount of food waste on campus."
