Editor,
One of the things I like about being a college graduate is that my problem-solving abilities are honed.
If there is a vast intellectual resource available in the form of an institution of higher learning, one would at least hope that if an alumna went to a department with a question, she might get some assistance.
This is in regards to an odd noise that is being generated in the Sycamore neighborhood. I recently called the Engineering Department with some questions. I first called Electrical. The professor I contacted responded, but after being told “go to an audiologist” I could not continue the conversation.
I tried Mechanical. This time, the administrative assistant was resistant to the idea that I would bother somebody with such a question. I guess going to my alma mater was clearly not a bright idea after all.
