interesteddad, your sarcastic and off-the-mark personal attacks just keep getting worse. You should make a better effort. And, no, I don't want to hear more about these surveys that we can't read and that don't apply to all of the colleges listed in the first post. And your diliberate misrepresentation of what other people say is just plain insulting. Do you think we can't see through this sort of thing?

1. Dining services is terrible. Can't they hire a competent chef to oversee things with all of that endowment money they have kicking around? This has been a perennial complaint of far too many students for far too long.

BTW, you really cracked me up earlier with your indignation over not hiring a top-rated chef (a chef! a top-rated chef!) to oversee an institutional kitchen serving three squares a day to 1300 kids. A top-chef? What's next? Ice sculptures? I know, maybe they could get Bobby Flay.

And, yes, college food sucks, but the food at Swarthmore is, as far as I know, even worse than average. Certainly worse than every other institution I've visited or attended.

Of course your own college's food is worse than schools you visit! Doh. You don't have eat their same old tired food 365 days a year until you are sick of it.

Yes, clearly I'm calling for Swarthmore to hire Bobby Flay. That's exactly what I said, because a "competent chef" must be a "top-rated chef" and, therefore, Bobby Flay. Seriously, this sort of thing is asinine, and many institutional kitchens do actually employ a competent chef, and I have
attended institutions with better dining services. This is a forum about Swarthmore, not an elementary school sandbox. Could you please, for the love of all that is intellectual and academic, try to raise the level of your posts? Again, you've filled your post with assumptions and personal attacks, like that I should have gone for the designer brand. I still don't care about the designer labels, and it wouldn't have any bearing on my success in my career. What I did say, though, is that perhaps I was wrong in assuming that Swarthmore's academic experience would be markedly better than that of an Ivy.
Do you even know how to make a post that doesn't misrepresent someone or engage in personal attacks, because 100% of your responses to me have done just that. Guess what, not everyone loves Swarthmore. Deal with it.
