We got a tip over Twitter that some drunk students stumbled across UWO’s mailing list for all students. Fortunately for us, UWO’s IT department hasn’t limited access to the mailing list which meant that early Sunday morning, students were bombarded with ridiculous emails. The emails had messages professing love for everyone to hatred of Queen’s to the library’s hours.
(The following emails are posted in sequence of being received and should be considered sic’d.)
