The stutiest of stuters
Last week, an article titled “Majority of first years waitlisted for Stevens Leased Housing” was published in The Stute.

The new Student Government Association cabinet was inaugurated into office on Wednesday, January 23 at 8 PM. This was the first year for the inauguration to take place in the evening, due to the removal of academic break last semester.
“My dissertation topic is how to help STEM students persist through their undergraduate programs,” said Leo D. Pedraza, Stevens’ new Assistant Dean and Director of Student Life.
This past Monday, November 12, the entirety of the Howe Center was closed for the day because of a water main break.
Registration at Stevens is like high school sports. It involves waking up at seven in the morning to repeat mindless drills (furiously clicking through Web Self Services).
