    <span><span>"Watch your thoughts, for they become words.</span></span><br>
    <span><span>Choose your words, for they become actions. </span></span><br>
    <span><span>Understand your actions, for they become habits. </span></span><br>

    <span>I really like what she's done here: pairing what she sees as a UMBC problem with a solution to that problem. That's a public service. It feels a lot less futile, and more responsible, than just venting frustration.  </span><span>Caitlin might find that she has more company in the Dunkin Donuts line, but she probably made some people's days a little brighter.</span><br>
    <span><br></span>
    <span>I'll bet other UMBC people have found some great solutions to other problems (or challenges, or inconveniences) too.  So why not share them?  Let's crowdsource this; we're all problem-solvers.  What do you do that makes UMBC work a little better for you?</span><br>
