      Dear
      Sirs
     
     
      Now
      it’s
      on.
      The
      article
      “Coca-Cola
      Lends
      Encouragement”
      in
      the
      January
      19th
      issue
     
     
      was
      the
      most
      inane
      thing
      I’ve
      read
      outside
      of
      PEOPLE
      WEEKLY.
      The
      large
      type-face
      and
      the
     
     
      empty
      space
      at
      the
      bottom
      probably
      means
      you
      had
      nothing
      better
      to
      write
      about.
      I
      feel
      so
     
     
      violated.
      Maybe
      the
      Coke
      machines
      will
      cheer
      me
      up.
     
     
      In
      related
      news,
      if
      you
      can
      tear
      your
      eyes
      away
      from
      the
      “brand-spanking”
      new
      machines
     
     
      and
      look
      toward
      the
      other
      side
      of
      the
      pit,
      you
      will
      see
      that
      Pepsi
      is
      still
      being
      sold
      on-campus.
     
     
      Furthermore,
      |
      have
      little
      remorse
      for
      those
      sods
      at
      the
      University
      of
      Manitoba.
      After
     
     
      doing
      a
      little
      math,
      I
      found
      out
      that
      we
      are
      paying
      0.296
      cents
      per
      millilitre
      before
      deposit
      for
      a
     
     
      bottle
      ofnon-existent
      Pepsi.
      At
      the
      U
      of
      M,
      they
      are
      paying
      0.250
      cents
      per
      millilitre.
      Who’s
      being
     
     
      manipulated?
      Who
      cares?
      It’s
      only

      A
      recent
      Stats
      Canada
      report
      indicates
      that
      full-time
      enrolment

      As
      well
      there
      has

      The
      BC
      government
      has
      been
      proactive
      in
      that
      it
      has
      frozen
      tuition
      at
      1995
      levels
      which
     
     
      created
      nearly
      13,000

      student
      spaces
      across
      the
      post-secondary
      system
      in
      three
      years

      has
      increased
      funding
      substantially
      since
      1992.
      Would
      PEI
      youth
      be
      so
      lucky?
