Message: [QUOTE="JMick, post: 2746202, member: 6467"] you couldn't be more off base. the campus has done nothing but become more tame over time. Even in 2010 before the ordinance was passed everything was dying down. I guaranfckingtee you that students over the last decade were better behaved than their 80s and 90s counterparts. It didn't "get so bad" that they had to do something about it. It was getting better and they decided to strike while the iron was hot. The President and Governor need to make Storrs its own municipality. It would solve all the issues and get you NIMBY's out of the way. College kids drink and party. Get over it. Your town gets jobs, lower home prices and more amenities because of UConn. Instead of being grateful you pretend you're not living in a college town and throw temper tantrums because you had to pick up half a dozen beer cans on Saturday morning. The town would be just another economically depressed area with a heroin epidemic if it wasn't for UConn. Be thankful you're picking up some cans and cups instead of cleaning up needles. Mansfield residents are the morons that move next to an airport or race track and start a petition to shut it down because the noise bothers them [/QUOTE]
