ShutterButton: Tragedy Of The Commons, Part 1000

What’s this disgusting, bacteria-infested gunk I’m looking at, you ask? A sample from the Biopond? A culture of the Zika virus? Think again! This is a real picture of water from our very own Commons dining hall. Chem 054 lab students tasked with analyzing water samples left a cup of water from the Commons drink station in a locker for a week and found this liquid refreshment awaiting them after Spring Break. Commons, you’ve taken away our Pizza Pi, you’ve yelled at us for saying our omelet order too slowly, and now you’ve most definitely poisoned us a couple of times. At least you have new technology vending machines to ensure that our phones don’t die before we can snap pics of more food atrocities.
