A Third World Union? You wish

Issue #1345 [Feb 23rd 2006]

Star Letter

Querido Félix,

Allow me to correct a misconception that Felix seems to have regarding the third world and the quality of student life there. I couldn't help but chuckle when I read in issue 1334 Felix's comment that "[Imperial] may be a first class university, but our Union is definitely more third world", as if implying that a third world union is utter crap. If our Union were anything like student life in places like Cali (Colombia), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) or Santa Cruz (Bolivia) to name but a few, the Union would probably have to hire extra security to control the invasion of gorgeous salsa-dancing women that would ensue.

Un cordial saludo
