there are guys in my dorm who decided to play cards in the elevator
see what intrigues me about college isn’t the intellectual pursuit or the bonding or whatever, its the fact that people have the freedom to do random shit like this
Okay, everybody, I have a story about random shit in college. When I was in college, there was a particular class I took where, no matter what time you walked into class, if you made it into the room before the professor, you wouldn’t be counted late. I mean, that’s a pretty cool policy, given how some professors are really obnoxious about attendance.
Well, one time, a fellow student of mine was running late to class. As she reached the edge of the building, she saw her professor making it to the front steps (super long rectangular building here). He looks up from walking and he sees her. He then points to his watch, gives her a well-meaning “Look who’s late” face, and walks on inside.
What he didn’t know, though, was that this particular student was like freakishly good at bouldering and related climbing skills, so she was just like “Fuck it” and SCALED THE BUILDING!
She tapped on the window of the 4th floor classroom (the floors had like 20ft ceilings, so, she was quite a ways up there), nearly making one student piss himself. They opened the window, she rolled through, onto the floor, and slid into her seat about five seconds before the professor opened the door to the classroom.
He did a double take, started to say “How the hell d—” when a security guard ran in, red-faced and panting, pointed at her and bellowed “STOP DOING THAT!”
Okay random college story of my dads. He was taking a history class and they were writing a timed paper during the class and when the time ended, the professor told everyone to turn in their papers or they would not be graded.
One boy in the class wasn’t finished with his paper when the time was up so he continued to write the paper until the class finished. When it did he went to the turn in the paper. The professor told him that he could not hand in his paper outside of the time restraint because it wasn’t fair to the rest of the people in the class.
So the boy went up to the professor desk and asked “do you know who I am? DO YOU KNOW
WHO I AM??” The professor calmly told him “no I don’t know who you are.” The boy said “good!” And stuffed his paper into the stack on the professor’s desk of all the papers that had been turned on time and then walked out of the class.The professor has no choice but to grade his paper.
My favorite thing about this post is that people keep adding college stories to it and they’re so much fun to read
My Cousin’s college story he has told me:
Freshman year of college, two of my friends, Josh and Aaron, were sitting in the hallway of their dorm just hanging out. Now, there was a guy on their floor that everyone called Joe Cool because he was always wearing sunglasses and a leather jacket. He would always come in late at night, usually pretty drunk.
Well, on that night, Joe Cool came in around 3 in the morning. He stumbled over to Josh and Aaron and said, “Guys…guys, you’ve got to help me. The hangover’s going to kill me. You got anything to help take the edge off this?”
Josh just kind of shrugged and said, “Nah man, can’t help you, sorry.” Aaron sat there for a second…then said, “Yeah, I think I’ve got something.” He left, leaving Josh to wonder what the hell he had in mind. Aaron came back a few minutes later with something in his hands.
In his hands were three small pills. One was hot pink. The other was neon green. Another was some kind of purple. He handed them over to Joe Cool, who was really appreciative. “Dude, you’re a saint, man, I really appreciate it, I really do.”
Aaron started cracking up and went back to looking at his computer. A few minutes later, he sat up. “Wait, did Joe walk away with those?” “Yeah dude, why?” Josh says.
“Oh shit..”
Aaron runs after Joe, and Josh follows him. “What the hell did you give him, man?!?!”
“I can’t tell you…but we need to stop him!”
They find Joe Cool in the bathroom. He’s walking away from the sink, having just guzzled the pills down. “Gee man, thanks again, you’re a real lifesaver, you hear?”
Aaron’s face turned blue. Josh was really starting to freak out now. “AARON. Is he going to be okay?!?!?!”
“Dude, I don’t know. But we need to watch him tonight.” So the two guys found Joe in his room already out cold. They decided to take turns watching him at night, one person sleeping while the other person watches him. A few hours in, though, they screw up and both fall asleep.
Fast forward to the morning and Joe’s gone when they wake up. Immediately, Josh and Aaron start freaking out. “Oh shit, where the hell’s Joe Cool?!?!”
They start looking around, and they eventually find him in the bathroom. He comes walking out of the stall and his face is beet red. He’s obviously been crying. His hair is completely sweaty. And he just nervously cries, “Guys…did you see me come in last night?”
“Umm…yeah, I guess,” the guys said.
“Well…did I eat anything…weird?”
“Uhh, I’m not sure Joe. Why?”
“I don’t know what I ate. But I just POOPED A T-REX!! AND A PTERODACTYL…AND I THINK A STEGOSAURUS!!!!
At this point, Aaron just hits the ground laughing. Josh is just sitting there shouting, “WHAAAAAAAT?!?!?! AARON…what did you give him?
Eventually, Aaron is able to stop laughing enough to speak. And he finally reveals what was in those pills: “Dude…dude…you know how at the toy store, you can buy those sponge capsules that you put in the water and they expand into dinosaurs? HE JUST TOOK THREE OF THEM!!!
