Rivalry pranks that almost got someone suspended.
RIVALRY PRANKS THAT ALMOST GOT SOMEONE SUSPENDED.
Follow us for more tales from the stacks and beyond!
Let’s be honest, every one of us has a story. That heart-stopping moment when the line between harmless fun and a disciplinary hearing blurred. We all remember the strategic planning meetings, the whispered late-night excursions, the adrenaline spike as you tried to outwit the rival institution. It wasn't just about winning on the field; it was about pride, about psychological warfare, about proving your school’s superior intellect – or at least its superior sneakiness. Remember that iconic stunt that went viral before "viral" was even a term? Or that subtle, genius act of sabotage that only true insiders would ever appreciate? The one that almost, almost, landed someone in front of a very stern dean, ruining not just their perfect GPA but their entire future.
And then, the next morning, it was back to reality. The very same hands that pulled off audacious pranks were soon stained with highlighter ink, meticulously color-coding notes for a pre-med exam. The minds buzzing with game-day strategies quickly pivoted to parsing ancient texts or complex algorithms. It's that unique dichotomy, isn’t it? The intense, almost absurd, pressure of academic life – the late nights fueled by questionable coffee, the moments of pure panic in the stacks wondering if you were truly cut out for this, the quiet tears shed over a seemingly insurmountable problem set. Yet, somehow, amidst that rigorous grind, we found the energy, the audacity, the sheer determination to orchestrate elaborate, memorable mischief. The highs of victory, whether on the quad or in the library, the lows of exhaustion. It all forged us. What was your closest call?
