I agree that, in many (if not countless) situations, Mr. Andyshak is indeed to blame.
But you should get your facts straight before crying like a little girl…otherwise, you look ignorant.
This is what I have found out from my chats with Mr. Andyshak, and his superiors at DOS.
A few misconceptions:
1) The housing crunch can not be attributed to Mr. Andyshak or admissions alone. The real finger should be pointed at the treasurer’s office, who requires DOS to keep the dorms operating at maximum capacity at all times. This is why we rented vacant doubles in Phillips to Scrippsies first semester.
2) The Scrippsies were booted at semester, Seven Deadly Sins. CMC would never accommodate Scripps students before CMC’ers.
3) Correct me if I am mistaken, but I believe the Juniors heading abroad for the Fall received a letter before departing informing them that they would not be guaranteed housing upon return. From what I have heard, there were 70 more students returning from abroad than departing in the Spring. CMC could have easily told these Juniors, who willingly made the choice to study abroad in the Fall, to find their own housing off campus…but they worked to squeeze everybody in. The Stark doubles are less than ideal, I understand. But wouldn’t you prefer to be in a Stark double on campus, than in an apt off campus? If not, move. Problem solved.
…I thought studying abroad would have equipped the Juniors with the tools to adapt to new situations, and a greater sense of maturity. I guess not.

Andyshak was wrong to say that, but you should have known that was a possibility, since the school admins would never let anyone back in that aren’t supposed to be there over break. When RAs do it, it’s still technically against the rules.

So send me an email with your story. Tell your friends that you know have complaints to send me their story. My address is skline10@cmc.edu. If you plan on applying to be an RA next year, I will respect your requests for anonymity.

Similarly, I am biased like you but I feel like a lot of people feel ‘biased’ when they speak of CMC housing, especially Andyshack. I have had three terrible experiences with Andyshak. I do not want to share them because they are very specific. I don’t want to share them, because he could use them ageist me. I just wanted to show support for this movement you started.

I have a dream that this article is noted by some higher power in the administration; I have a dream that we will be liberated from Andyshak regime
