|
|
Quote: | As a part of *Poverty Week* this year, MIT's Global Poverty Initiative will
be hosting a *study break with food from Bertucci's* *TONIGHT at 9PM in
Talbot*. Learn about the ways you can help *fight poverty* and enjoy some
good food and company. |
I feel like it's in somewhat bad taste to recognize the suffering and starvation of millions by gorging yourself on Bertucci's, but that's just me. |

That is kind of funny. I guess that's why they had a picture of a piece of pizza on the poster in the Infinite advertising the Global Hunger talk? |

Maybe they planned to take a picture of themselves eating pizza and then sending it to starving children in Africa? |
