There is some construction going on on campus that blocks part of the busiest walkways on campus (Those of you at BYU should know EXACTLY what I'm talking about). I have no idea what construction is going on, all I know is that they are fencing off a critical route I take to go to one of my classes, New Testament. There is a grassy area between where the sidewalk is cut off and the building I need to get to for this class, so what do I do? I walk on that grass, just like the other thousand students. This results in dead grass, as clearly illustrated from the picture. Do I feel bad about this? A little bit. Am I going to change my route? No. Do I believe that BYU/the construction workers should have known that this was going to happen and done something to save that innocent grass? Yes. Do I have an idea of what that something would be? No.
I could take a longer way to class that stays on the paved path and is probably only a few dozen feet longer. But that would take FOREVER - especially since thousands of kids are on that walkway and slow me down! (that is a whole other issue....)
So, I am a grass killer - even if my favorite color is green.
