Sounds like a horrid place to go to school.

[jla]

What's your point in posting the rules at a private institution which people attend of their own free will?

[RonF]

So, I'd have lasted, what, a week at this school?

"Persons of opposite sex occupying a motel room." No problem there. Who can afford a hotel room? Now, if they'd have had a "Persons of opposite sex occupying the bushes in the quad.", they'd have had me.

[SoDak]

I wouldn't have lasted the first week when I was 18.

[John Beresford Tipton]

Maybe to show how far out of the "mainstream"
Falwell and his acolytes are?

[NEWwoman]

6 Reprimands + $35 Fine

Gambling

Looks like Bill Bennett would not be welcome here.

[Gladwin]

It's an interesting look into a sub-culture within the United States. I am interested in it in the same way I am interested in the cultures I read about in the National Geographic.

Personally, I feel college is a time for wacky hijinks, but obviously that school is the wrong place for that. :)

[ConservativeDude]

Maybe to show how far out of the "mainstream"
Falwell and his acolytes are?

...one would hope. They are Christians.

[SoDak]

Possession or consumption of alcoholic beverages

I broke this one the first night after freshman orientation.

[jla]

Maybe to show how far out of the "mainstream" Falwell and his acolytes are?

Maybe it's your definition of "mainstream" that's corrupted?

[John Beresford Tipton]

I know an acolyte could emerge.

[John Beresford Tipton]

...one would hope. They are Christians.

Sound like they are off the deep end,
Christians or Satan worshipers, whatever

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

What is "6 reprimands"? "Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad boy" ?

[Mister Magoo]

Sounds like a great place to go to school.

/sarcasm off

[Batrachian]

I didn't read it all. Is there any mention of the penalty for pointing your finger and pretending it's a gun?

[John Beresford Tipton]

I was on double secret probation before I got there!

[NEWwoman]

"Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad boy" ?

This sounds like it falls under:

30 Reprimands + $150 Fine

Two or more individuals of the opposite sex together in motel room

[Chancellor Palpatine]

Geez - how could anybody consign their sons to such a den of fagdom as that? And why would anyone want their daughters to go their and become humorless crones at the ripe old age of 19?

Please tell me that student loan $$$ is not provided to students there.

[Chancellor Palpatine]

So we can all laugh at them.
