<p>second, I think the admin realized they overreacted with that incident, and the forum is now being used for chalking regularly now (from my understanding). I think it will become a tradition on campus. Had it not been for the admin’s overreaction, the students voicing their dissent with the admin’s decision and the admin’s reversal of their initial decision, it may not have had the same effect. Another example of vandalism on campus that turned into tradition is the Spider on Boatwright as you’re coming down to campus. I hate to hear that people transfer after just a semester, because college in general can be tough on kids (it was on me; I left for a few days in October to sort out what I wanted and had transfer papers filled out in January, but I stuck it out and later realized that it was the transition, not just UR). The only thing that matters is that they’re happy where they are now.</p>
