THE PASSIVE-AGGRESSIVE POST-IT WAR ON THE MINI FRIDGE.

Follow us for more relatable tales from the hallowed halls!

Remember the mini fridge? It wasn't just a cooling unit; it was often a battleground. From the moment you unpacked your carefully curated snacks into that shared, compact space, the stage was set for the passive-aggressive Post-it war. A single yogurt, a lone energy drink – suddenly, they became symbols of territorial disputes. "Is this YOUR artisanal kombucha, Sarah?" "Funny, I don't recall sharing my organic kale chips, Mark." From polite requests for labeling to thinly veiled accusations, notes escalated to philosophical treatises on property rights, all stuck to a humming appliance.

It sounds trivial, perhaps, for minds grappling with quantum mechanics or constitutional law in the lecture halls. Yet, these absurd skirmishes were quintessentially ours. They were the background noise to midnight study sessions and the prelude to existential debates. These aren't just stories about petty squabbles; they're about learning to live with brilliant, often eccentric, individuals in confined spaces. They taught us patience, or at least how to expertly hide our preferred snacks.

For current students, is that Post-it note still clinging to your mini fridge, a testament to shared space and strained civility? For alumni, do you chuckle remembering whose milk mysteriously vanished or whose leftover pizza became a point of contention? These weren't just dorms; they were crucibles. We forged friendships, debated grand theories, and occasionally, waged silent wars over a single slice of pizza. It’s part of the unique narrative woven into the fabric of our institutions, where the micro-level absurdities perfectly complement the macro-level intellectual pursuits. These are the unsung tales, just as vital as any lecture, shaping who we are.
