The Fall semester is well underway and the Alumni and Student Engagement Center is starting to fit nicely into Clark Admissions tours. In turn, Clarkies are finally discovering the wonders of the University’s newest eatery, The Den. The cozy, not space-like coffee shop offers a variety of bagels, pastries, and, of course, hot beverages.

Perhaps one of The Den’s biggest selling points is its variety of Starbucks-branded flavored coffees. With choices ranging from hazelnut to raspberry to banana, staff and faculty alike flock to the completely not starship-like café. Professor of Physics, Jeffrey Plum, told The Freudian Slip, “I like the grape.”

However, not every student is sold on what The Den has to offer. Linda Teally (‘18) works in the Campus store and often finds herself looking for something to sip on from the totally-not-the-space-shuttle-Discovery coffee shop. Teally told The Freudian Slip, “I am a big coffee fan, but the new Starbucks flavors are not exciting me. Frankly, I’m disappointed in Sodexo and Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, and I wish things would just go back to how they used to be.”

Teally rallied her fellow students in an effort to go back to the good ole days. Much to the surprise of the Clark community, Sodexo actually gave a damn. Coming in November, the Den will offer Jazzman’s flavored coffee. Along with popular new flavors like Bisquick and Egg, students will be comforted by Jazzman’s Roast and Super Jazzman’s Roast.

Hipster Quote of the Week:

The message at the end of “The Tortoise and the Hare” isn’t that ‘slow and steady wins the race’, but actually a well-remembered quote from the 1977 Disney classic “A New Hope”: “Great kid! Don’t get cocky”. Bullshit that the hare was gonna lose that race if he didn’t choose to stop for a nap and a snack and whatever else he did. Bullshit that the tortoise was going to catch up in any capacity if the hare didn’t slow down for him. Maybe that platitude makes sense, but definitely not in this situation.

 

A race is a sheer contest of speed. No other skills go into that. The tortoise and the hare aren’t making miniature wooden horses and getting judged on the craftsmanship of their products alongside their finish time; they are moving from one point to another. In no universe does slow and steady win that race. Slow and steady wins no races, except for races where the point is to go as slow as possible. Even in cases where slow and steady could be considered a possible alternative to fast, such as the aforementioned miniature-wooden-horse-making competition, someone who can do similar quality work at a much faster pace still wins that competition.

 

Slow and steady does not win the race. Not being too full of yourself does.."
