As you've doubtless heard by now, MIT has decided to raise graduate student stipends by about 6 percent starting in June. Today our reporter is out on the streets asking grad students what they plan to do with their newfound wealth:
Student #1: I plan to buy a higher class of ramen.
Student #2: I plan to pay more of my back rent -- maybe I can even stall the eviction!
Student #3: I plan to pay a few of my parking tickets.
Student #4: I plan to buy dot-com stocks -- they're due to rebound any day now!
Student #5: I plan to give it all to the Girl Scouts!
You're a student too, so haul out your wallet and drop that 6 percent alongside Student #5 at tonight's...
