UR Darkness

What happens when campus-wide power goes out at 6 p.m.?

1. Fire Marshall rules are blatantly flouted. Those who have candles have power. And college students discover the necessity of flashlights. It feels like camping!

2. The campus choir suddenly finds hundreds of recruits. Without their internet, video games, televisions, or even reading lamps, what else can college students do but exercise their operetta voices? Again, reminiscent of camping.

3. The beer flows, more heavily than before. Welcome to the Shit Show: “We have nothing else to do…. And campus security won’t even be able to see us!”

We didn't have water for a day during the first week of school. They put port-a-potties underneath my balcony. I went to my parents' house to shower. :-P
