National Journal has been following the minutiae of the Obama transition on their impressively thorough Lost in Transition blog, and it is there that David Herbert reports that District college students are getting the shaft in terms of raking in the big inauguration-related bucks. Like all living, breathing D.C. residents, students at schools like GWU, American, Georgetown and Howard would love to receive a giant pile of Obamamoney by subletting out their dorm rooms around Jan. 20. Unfortunately, those same schools are cracking down on efforts to sublet by sending out mean, threatening, all-caps emails reminding students of the terms of their lease agreements. Poor D.C. college students. And more potential renters for the rest of us!

With the exception of Howard students who aren't as universally renowned for their personal, unearned wealth...f*ck 'em. If the rich babies at GWU, AU or GeoTown are crying in their Bud Limes tonight cause they can't scam some poor soul, that just wants to witness a part of history, into paying $1000 to sleep on a semen-encrusted futon and calling it a "sublet", f*ck 'em. Maybe if you'd stop throwing away your PS3s at the end of every semester just to buy new ones in the spring, you'd save a couple bucks.
Don't forget Corcoran students!
