The Envelope: Cerritos bumfiddles students

Books are exorbitant, usually costing upwards of $300 for full-time students; many times the textbooks are not used.

Often instructors merely use the book to give busy work or as an educational crutch so that they don’t have to teach. These professors should be replaced with ones who respect the students’ intellect and time.

Usually a school uses one publisher over another as part of a contract, which is a strong factor in the moral decline of society. What is good for people is only offered on a capitalistic basis.

In this way, the bourgeoisie are forcing ignorance and delaying an increase in prosperity for all. If more had access to the knowledge that literature holds, perhaps they would know to revolt against the corporate overlords; making for themselves a society based on efficiency of man-power, conservation and conduct set by such philosophers as Thomas More and Karl Marx.

Paying for parking violations on campus is bogus, parking passes should be free. The parking pass is just another way to shake down people for every nickel and dime. What’s next? Charging students 10 cents to take a test? What an asinine absurdity!

It’s enough to make one heave if one were not already heaving from the wide lack of variety of food on campus.

Burdog’s name is embarrassing to say out loud; the Culinary Arts department food is wildly overpriced; The Bowl’s teriyaki chicken is only served extra crunchy; and Subway, which was only put on campus because (despite the obscene amount of empty carbs) is slightly easier to choke down than the recently ejected Taco Bell!

The “food” can sedate and stupefy all who consume it, and the capitalist propaganda in the purposeless textbooks has heretofore done so.

The students of Cerritos College are being financially sabotaged with petty fines and fees and are expected to eat inflated trash or starve.
