Odds and Ends: Democrats To Face Off @ UNH Tuesday 

The New Hampshire, at its new web address, has this: "History will be made next Tuesday night when Democratic candidates arrive at the Johnson Theatre to participate in a nationally broadcast debate..."

Students are shut out by the limited availability of tickets.

And a university employee is more than annoyed that "parking will be commandeered to accommodate this 'media extravaganza.'"

The Boston College Heights, currently engaged in a bitter public battle with campus administration over the paper's autonomy, has this online exclusive: "Following an announcement by the Archdiocese of Boston that the Church plans to sell 27 acres of property across the street from Boston College, the University says that it is 'interested' in discussing purchasing the land for campus expansion..."

Bizzare: Bridgewater State College student writes into the campus paper The Comment about a bill she received over the weekend for "Dorm Damage."

The bill was for nine cents: "They billed the 300 people in my dorm nine cents apiece. That's super and all, but if everyone in my building got charged nine cents that's a $27 charge. Too bad the postage alone must have been at least $87. Not to mention the cost for paper and the envelopes, the ink wasted on printing the bills, the salary of poor person who had to stuff the 300 envelopes, and the fact that I got another bill the same day in a completely different envelope with the nine cent charge tacked on to it. I sure am glad that BSC overpaid the bill by a ridiculous amount just to prove a point..."

Amherst SGA opposes $10 million veto for UMass.

"Raises puzzle UMass, Romney vague on future contract hikes," writes the Hampshire Gazette.

December 3rd Lowell Sun article on "UMass Lowell rooting for override of Romney's veto of its $1.5M."
