Big Idea: Picinic Tables!

I recently received this e-mail about a way to make campus life better.

Hi,

I have a request/question. So with all this nice weather
I've noticed that there is virtually no place to sit outside
and do work except on the grass. Im talking about a serious
lack of tables. Simple picnic tables set up on the quad and
all over campus. What if it rained the night before, and I
don't want to sit on the grass? I really can't believe that
no one has suggested putting picnic tables around campus.

I think this is a great idea and one which can be easily implemented using the Slate's budget, we'd make sure we'd do it if elected (maybe even before we start our term in the fall).


While the current Slate has a 'Big Ideas' listhost, no one knows about it or posts, unfortunately. What'd be easier is just make sure students know who we are and what we're thinking so you can send us e-mails like this one.


Thanks for the note, and please send us more ideas.
