'Anti-capitalist' campus co-op faces shutdown because renters refuse to pay rent

'Anti-capitalist' campus co-op faces shutdown because renters refuse to pay rent - The College Fix:
Call it dwell-and-dash.
The Campbell Club at the University of Oregon is $17,000 in debt because, well, people take its anti-capitalist bona fides seriously.

The Daily Emerald reports that the Student Cooperative Association, which oversees campus co-ops, will shut down the Campbell Club in two months if it doesn’t pay its tab:

Known on campus for its “hippies” and the “police raids” that end its parties, the Club is also basically a roach motel.

“He comes upstairs covered in straight poop water like, ‘Jimi help me!’ ” said Wood.
Wood toweled off Przekop’s face and the two of them rushed downstairs to fix the dish system. After much trial and error, they managed to get it running again.
“But people still throw food in the sink,” Przekop said, laughing.
They could have called a plumber, but the Campbell Club is already $17,000 in debt..."
