Students need access to all campus computer labs
By Ben Peskin
It's exam week, and you have a term paper due for sociology 20 minutes. The class is in the brand-spanking-new Martin J. Whitman School of Management.

I've been meaning to do this for a while now, but after reading today's cover story I felt like it was absolutely imperative. I want to commend The Daily Orange on its content as of late.
