Library Hours at WVU: Mock Us, We Deserve It

There are lot of reasons that anyone in the administration who praises us as a first-rate university should be mocked at length (or hey, if it's a Godwin toadie, let the rotten fruit fly). But really our library is a full-on disgrace. No school with such a small collection is in good shape. And the library's hours merit ridicule. I need a book, and just realized I won't be able to get it for over a day because right now the library closes at 5 on Saturday and doesn't open again until 6 on Sunday evening. And by "right now" I mean during the entire summer. It's a disgrace, and you'd think that student government would do something about it. But ...

Oh, but of course, why didn't I think of that?

You'd think Mountaineers would have at least minimal standards for their flagship university. And if you don't have a library (and having one that's closed is pretty much the same as not having one) you really don't have a university. Heck, you really don't even have a school.
