Besides peace on earth, here are the top 10 things that we, at The Mirror, would like for Christmas that could benefit the Fairfield community: 10. A better, easy-to-use e-mail system. E-mail is essential to student life, and StagWeb hinders more than it helps. Those 3 a.m. “downtimes” are unacceptable if you have a paper due at 8 a.m.

9. A more enthusiastic mascot. Hutch Williams ’08 is more of a mascot than our motionless deer. Can we get some energy, please?

8. Better food at the Stag. Come on, how about a few more healthful options or just some variety in general? Eating spicy turkey every day is just not cutting it.

7. More letters to the editor from students and faculty. If you have something to say, say it! Your feedback, both positive and negative, is important to us.

6. More parking on campus. Fighting for parking spots is no way to make friends. 5. More Fairfield cabs. If students are responsible enough to choose to not drive while intoxicated, then they shouldn’t be punished with hour-long waits.

4. A greener student body. Things are in place, so it’s the student body’s responsibility now. Take advantage of recycling bins around campus and realize that walking to class (instead of driving) isn’t all that bad.

3. The drinking age lowered to 18. Do we really need to explain this one?

2. The unlocking of townhouse basements. Just like the beach, the basements are a Fairfield tradition. It’s nearly impossible to have parties without them.

1. A solution to the housing crisis. Being allowed to live off campus senior year should be a guarantee, and forced triples are not OK.
