The Semester of Start-Ups Kontinues
February 25, 2014 at 3:46 pm
At this time in the semester, along with the buildup of midterms and the looming promise of Spring Break, comes the onslaught of fleeting and cleverly named MGMT 230 start-ups. The Stress Stop, following the trend of 230's past, attempts to delight the student body with the thrilling combination of convenience, risque puns, and the solving of problems we never knew we had with tailored versions of already existing companies.
Based in Hunstman and Van Pelt, The Stress Stop promises in-library school supply sales and door-to-door delivery of "keyboard kondoms," colorful protective plastic wrapping for your laptop keys. However, while we appreciate a good pun and an appeal to laziness as much as the next student, if we were thinking about getting frisky with our electronics, the tagline--"School Rapes. Use Protection."--might make us seek our pleasures elsewhere. Not kool.
