Show 'Bitch Witch' goes up because of put downs c T - " a u $ ; IK "1 - 3 I r 'V ' i TV ' 0 ;T" ... v. V h : y ? an nf i tlHiMMin 'Jiliiiiii'"i' ' Like the brunt of a perpetual practical joke, the book store Bitch Witch withstands with-stands the humiliation of irate students sticking her with notes complaining of the store's several hang-ups, let-downs, pit falls and other insurmountable problems. According Ac-cording to letters pinned on the bitch (witch that is) there are no good things to be said about the store. Replies to the pitiful pleas of the sign next to the witch (located at the bottom of the store's north stairs) for love letters have yet to be seen. Complaints about the store range from the reasonably valid to the totally absurd. Roulhac Garn, freshman, feels that the store is totally disorganized, staffed with girls who don't know how to use a cash register, and know less about where books are to be found. This is perhaps the reason for several students just standing in the store with blank stares and mumbling to themselves. Other students feel that used books are priced too high and general education required books are too scarce. One note pinned to the witch signed by A. Student stated, "I hate your text books. They are too heavy and they have no plots." Another wishing to help the store wrote "to dispel the foolish notion among students that this bookstore wrests enormous enor-mous profits from its captive clientele, why not publish annual reports similar to thosl of a private enterprise and make them available to students?" Perhaps the best complaint explaining the ever present confusion at the bookstore was signed by Augustus, the White Clown: "1. The people in special services are so kind as to tell which line one is in (or not in) only when one is actually at the cashier. This creates some doubt as to your sanity. 2. The weight of the verbiage in text books is only exceeded by their mass. How about some helium balloons to remove some weight?" The general consensus of the feelings toward to-ward the bookstore have not been exactly pleasant. Opinions vary from one student's total disgust to another's complete indifference. indiffer-ence. However, one note pinned to the witch probably sums up the majority of the students' attitude towards the store in one sentence: "DEAR BOOK STORE: I HATE YOU!" |
