Trees, schmees

So, it's the beginning of another school year, and around this time here at Hofstra School of Law a lot of the student organizations announce their first meetings of the year. In order to publicize the meetings and recruit new members, the organizations usually make law school-wide announcements about their meetings. The most common ways of doing this are an announcement via the in-building network monitors that flash messages, a sign posted on the bulletin boards at the law school entrances, a posting sent to the students who have signed up on the organization's web site, or an announcement in the weekly e-mail sent to everybody by the president of the SBA (which is like a student government association).

Does anyone else find it strange that today I sit studying in the lounge and see that the Environmental Law Society has left 8 1/2 x 11-paper flyers on all the tables all around to announce their first meeting tomorrow?

Perhaps it was recycled paper. And it was telling you something....

Unfortunately, I am pretty sure it was not recycled. It was that texture of non-recycled...and bleached and shiny white. Anyway, you give Hofstra law students too much credit. ;) They don't come up with such subversive messages as that!
