If students once found a cause in banning the bomb, this generation is out to ban the bottle. The disposable plastic water bottle, that is.
-Lawrence Goodman, Brown Alumni Magazine
Shoot, son: BTB just got a full page spread in the Brown Alumni Magazine. This might be the one time that the BAM won’t be relegated to bathroom reading duty. I like it so much, I might just even frame it.
For hanging in the bathroom, of course.

Thanks to Jef Nickerson @ Greater City: Providence for this announcement:
A report by the Environmental Working Group ranks Providence’s municipal water as second best (of metropolitan areas over 250,000 people) in the country. EWG compiled information from water utility tests going back to 2004 in 48,000 municipalities in 45 states. Arlington, Texas beat us out for the top spot. The only other New England city in the top ten is Boston at number 5.
More reason for us Providencians to give up the bottled water habit.

if you can table at all this week, that would be so helpful! (thank you to those who have already signed up!) good luck with midterms, all! Sign up here!
also, forward the petition paige sent to ALL of your friends AT BROWN (at brown only)!
