So in an effort to utilize more of UConn’s resources, my friend Karissa decided we should go to see the Mets and one of the final games ever at Shea Stadium.  SUBOG (Student Union Board of Governors) puts on a couple of these types of trips every semester, sometimes to see the Newport mansions or [...]
