Earlier today, we covered the announcement and fallout over the cancelling of “the Alley”, the designated student tailgating area for Rutgers football games. Many students are upset with the decision and rightly so. However, I didn’t like the idea of boycotting football games due to the administration’s decision, which students were proposing through a petition on change.org. Supporting this football team is far more important than any tailgate, regardless of whether it’s a bad decision by the administration or not.
Of course, this negative and somewhat perplexing news story has taken another turn, this time a positive one.
