Actually as long as they provide water fill up stattions all over campus I have no problem with them voting this in.

At least it will eliminate empty bottles thrown all over

[JimRed]

Why? (I don’t want to give the ChiTrib any hits)

[Da Coyote]

Yup, they’ll sell you an overpriced worth lib arts degree, but don’t even think of trying to buy some filtered water there.

And one wonders why we STEM folks f*rt in the general direction of the majority of our college mates.

oh no! those students will die of thirst!

Say it’s not so! No water bottles? How will I be able to tell an entitled, self-absorbed yuppie from the general population at a glance?

looks like a business opportunity for some enterprising entrepreneur with a large back pack

[Freestate316]

It makes me wonder about what they are putting in the water— drugs that make them paranoid, delusional, incapable of rational thought, and incoherent—in other words, guaranteed Democrat voters!

Who in their right mind buys water anyway? Especially on a college campus with cold water fountains everywhere. Just bring your own bottle and fill it up there. You’d have to be nuts to spend 2 or 3 dollars a bottle for water.

The story doesn’t mention if the plans include banning bottled sodas, which are only flavored bottled water.

Its called “Environmental Care Theater”

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

Maybe someone will invent a cooled water dispensing machine - they could call it something like a “water fountain”

[Don Corleone]

If bottled water is so bad...why not stop it NOW???

[silverleaf]

But $5 a cup Starbucks coffee (in paper cups) will go on!

[Utah Binger]

Must be a light news day.

One would think that a university based in Chicago would know what happens when you try Prohibition.
