What are some weird things about your school?

Post Reply New Topic

No lunch room. Or gym.

My school has no lockers

I don't to talk about my high school so here are some fun facts about my college, Purdue North Central.

We have boys and girls basketball teams, but no gym.

It's a commuter college, but you can never find a spot to park.

And the odds in my classes are very good. About 2-4 guys out of 25 or so.

PS. I'm a dude

It costs $100 a year to park at my school.

My high school:

- Was built over a cemetery (no, seriously, there was a ****ing graveyard on the school grounds right next to the football field). Needless to say there were quite a few ghost stories about the school despite the fact that it was only 10 years old when I graduated
- Our football team was so bad that the coach actually came on the intercom one day asking the students and faculty to pray that a certain HS football team would lose in the playoffs later that night so that our team would have a better chance at winning their next match
- The first principal, Dr. Outlaw, was replaced by Dr. Redikopp (pronounced "ready cop")
- Said second principal also became well known among the student body for her incessant use of the motto "dignity, honor, and respect" so much so that we referred to all her daily intercom speeches as "DHRs"

My college (Emory):

- A more apt name may be "Coca-Cola University" since the school gets a very large chunk of its annual $5 billion endowment from said corporation. As a result there's no shortage of Coke paraphernalia in the school and practically half the campus is named after either Coca-Cola or Robert Woodruff, one of the past CEOs of Coke. And perhaps related to this is the fact that you will never see a Pepsi can, bottle, or logo on campus. Ever.
- Emory boasts a network of six hospitals, two of which are on campus (three if you count the clinic). The official school mascot is Swoop the eagle. This is the mascot that hospital patients and their families see. Unbeknown to them, however, the school has a second (far more popular) mascot created by the students since the official one was so lame. That mascot being Dooley the skeleton. Yes, that's right, the university's real mascot is a skeleton. Keep in mind that we have a statue of said skeleton mascot about a block away from the general hospital and two blocks away from the children's hospital. Irony is beautiful isn't it?
- There are several dorms on campus. Some of them are nice. Many of them are old and suck. One was even supposed to be demolished several years ago but the university still hasn't gotten around to it yet and just keeps stuffing hapless undergrads in there in the meantime. Emory, however, loves to blow massive amounts of money on building improvements and new buildings. So, do they decide to build new dorms? Hell no. They instead decide to spend their money in ways like spending millions of dollars on a greenhouse and $15,000 on a Dooley statue. That's right, the plants on campus have nicer living conditions than some of the students.

I was supposed to go to Dawson College the year it was shot up, but I chose not to. I'm glad because I might be dead if I had chosen to go.

my school got a new fire alarm system, and it has a voice message on it. It says something like "a fire has been reported, please evacuate using the nearest exit, and do not use the elevator", when there is no elevator in the school, its a one floor school!

Our colors are john deer.

We are a small ag college in south ga, but have the nicest dorms for a 2 year college in the nation.

We go by ABAC....

water got you high

Would "Me" be an acceptable answer?
