EVIDENCE THAT ISU IS RUN BY DUMBASSES #458:

One of the main sidewalks I use to go to class goes right through a parking lot. Zillions of ISU students use it, it's somewhere that there really should be a sidewalk. But it's in the middle of a parking lot, for crying out loud. You can tell it's supposed to be a sidewalk going through a parking lot because most of the parking lot is asphalt, and has the lines for cars to park in, and the cars are parked in them. The sidewalk is made out of concrete, and students walk on it.

This is an accident waiting to happen.

Anyway, what set me off on this (it's nothing new) is coming back from class on said parking lot sidewalk, and I had to walk off of it, into the parking lot to avoid an ISU mower that was deliberately driving on the sidewalk. I know I see all sorts of ISU vehicles every day messing up the quad and driving students off of sidewalks, but it just seems even more wrong, somehow, that we're having to compete for the parking lot sidewalk with lawnmowers now, as if we were'nt almost run over by the cars in the parking lot every day anyhow.
