Student (I give him my utmost respect for the fact that he is a veteran) plans to shackle himself to the fountain to force Glen Beck to apologize and also, to have a sober fountain day:

I must admit, he had me at the sacrifices that he made for the country, until I saw him demand fountain day and then saw a youtube page full of him eating glue and tampons. Go after your peers that destroy your reputation.

My point really is, do you TRULY not understand why the college would cancel what has become a binge drinking holiday & major headache for the administration after the huge PR disaster that was the SPD riots? If it was held, many kids would drink themselves into oblivion on and off-campus. UA didn’t need a reason to cancel fountain day, the students have given them dozens over the years.

Fo me, I see a photo of 2 people having a good time. One perhaps enjoying the cooling effect of water on a warm spring day in 2004. Prhaps you should have checke the weather forcast on that day prior to posting you latent sexual frustrations. Seriously..go get laid dude. You obviously need it.

Now as for “Fountian Day”. Well……. Suspending it based on the actions of a few irresponsible people, (not to mention off campus), I can come to no other conclusion that ” The U Albany Administrations actions to suspend a traditons such as fountian say, based on the actions of a few unruely students, in an off campus act is irresponsible and indecent. I suggest, the next time a professor gets arrested for downloading child porn or gets a DWI and is fired as a result of their actions. Then ALL faculty and staff should pay the price and consequence. The same is what is being done with the suspension of fountian day.”

“After the Shenanigans of Kegs & Eggs, it is my belief that no more Fountain Day Celebrations should be celebrated, nor should any other celebration on the SUNY campus of Albany, or in the city for SUNY Students for that matter. Following this wonderful line of not thinking, I believe that no Albany Policemen should be allowed to drive. After all, Miller’s arrest proves they are all thoughtless, hypocritical, criminals and drunks. Sounds about right.”

“The response of these events by a local community that feels almost no outrage over its own problems was been so over the top that I took the first half of CezFox’s post literally. Many have called for much worse without any hint of irony! The way they tell it Albany without SUNY students would be paradise! Corrupt politicians, drunk drivers, gang violence, and economic meltdown can be shrugged off I guess, but parties by students who attend the same school as a small group of drunken criminals is OUTRAGEOUS!!! While there is definitely an unwarranted sense of entitlement about Fountain Day among some students, the bile released against them in the comments section of local media websites is stunning. Every upstate town with a SUNY has some grounds for complaint when it comes to the students- but few have home grown problems quite as awful or persistant as the capital region does. Complaining about kids from other parts of the state is much easier than fixing Albany’s much bigger problems. If it weren’t, more people would be doing the latter instead of the former.”

YESSSSS, sooooooooo true!!!
