Why is it that on-campus residency has spiked in numbers, yet there hasn’t been a spike in amenities to make SF State a better destination spot for nightlife and weekend activities? This place becomes a black hole when school is out; no pub, no ice cream socials, and meal variety is slim.

Let’s face it, when the sun goes down and one’s academic duties dissipate, the average student wants to enjoy the great indoors by eating, drinking, with a space to socialize and entertainment provided.

There is an equation for determining whether or not a university is or will become a party school. It goes like this: large volume of on-campus residents + small volume of on-campus night and weekend activities = parties in the residential halls. This is what’s happening at SF State and it should strike fear into the administration's souls.

Though the administration has long-term plans to increase SF State’s appeal to residents, the recent surge of freshmen (with nothing to do but party) should send a message the planning committee: GET MOVIN’!
