Welcome to CEU people. Yeah, yeah you’re probably so excited to be a part of this unique institution, and looking forward to meeting new people, your professors, your class readings and etc. You already have probably, anyway... However, what you will not experience directly is being the actual subject of the stories about how it “was” to be a part of this community. Such as how bad was the smoke coming out of smoking rooms in the dormitory… Now they do not exist anymore, so wait for the winter people, it will be so good while non-smokers are laughing up their sleeves, and enjoying their freedom!
Second thing you will not be a part of is spam and the discussions revolving around them. It basically means that unless it is allowed (pre-registered), you cannot send an e-mail to all of the community, even if you think that e-mail contains crucial information for CEU members. Who the hell are you to decide that anyway? It is most certainly better to sacrifice some important e-mails to prevent mass delirium. Consider this as the Patriot Act of CEU. It is really hard to push the delete button after all. By the way, if what I am saying here does not make any sense to you, good for you!
Ok, I hope you enjoyed your wine in orientations, and started to visit Budapest nights with your friends, after all that is something they cannot change; the government can though (Yes, police might visit you if you are drinking your beer even you are just in front of bar now.)
The raison d'être for this column was to get involved with the spam going on in our e-mail accounts. They stopped the spam, yet its spirit shall live forever, thanks to good, old, new and incredibly disturbing days…
