Just doing my job.

BU is notorious for unhelpful staff (of course they deal with the likes of this kid all the time) but it really looks to me that he had reasonable alternatives, move off campus or get an apartment on campus, and chose not to be reasonable. They can't have kids in regular dorms off the meal plan because they'd be cooking on nonmetallic surfaces in their rooms and burning the place down. I was impressed that you could get organic food in the cafeteria. The kid just strikes me as someone with a sense of entitlement who has never known a real injustice.
