How do you get caught? Are there like dorm popo who check peoples rooms in america? Went to an NYU dorm in the summer, had to be signed in and they took my ID from me. I like that they had a soda machine where you could mix all the different ones together which was free, that was cool.

I still have very fond, albeit sightly hazy memories, from a week I spent in Isla Vista back when I was 18. Those fond memories may include individuals in my group of four spending a few days in jail, passing out in vomit in a ditch, shacking up with a random girl for a few days, and general debauchery, but I can't be certain.

I went to UW-Madison, so it wasn't that different from my normal college experience.

i dont think i was ever caught with alcohol while under 21 in college, but most of the time I'd heard friends get busted, it was usually some idiot answering the door to campus police or the RA without hiding alcohol first.

The school was usually pretty good about it though, they would just tell everyone to go home if it was late/people were obviously underage

the way it works here is every floor in the dorm has an RA. If an RA hears a lot of noise from a dorm room they'll come in and confiscate alc/write you up (which means nothing). The maneuver is just to hide all the shit while the RA is knocking and as long as they don't totally hate you they'll let it slide. Writing kids up is a total PITA for the RAs so they try to avoid it if possible.

I kinda miss the days of having someone hold the emergency door open for you while you and your buddies sprinted inside with 12 30-packs of keystone light, hid them in the stairwell, and then proceeded to haul them up 22 flights of stairs.

 

Actually I totally don't.

Our RAs would party with us half the time, we had pony kegs in the rooms, and the dorms had big rooms with living rooms also there were about 2,000 people living in 4 buildings it was pretty ridiculous.  Not to mention the availability of any drug you want, fond memories of ambulance coming 2-3 times a night on a weekend.  Dudes jumping out of windows after taking mescaline leaving blood all over the place, dudes crawling around on the floor after inhaling ether, bitches running around naked, slip-n-slides in the dorm hallways on st patty's day. Remember a guy getting tazed by the cops, ripping the contact out, getting up running, getting tazed again, ripping the contacts out again and booking it, cops said fuck it and set up camp outside his room, later they just opened the door and found an ounce of blow.

 

If RA knocked on your door, you didn't open it, if they went to call the cops we would call our downstairs neighbors throw everything in a garbage bag and lower it out the window into the room downstairs.  Most weekends we would party on the hill, drinking in the dorms was reserved for mid week drinking.

 

Unsurprisingly I had a 0.23 GPA freshman year, of the 12 friends or so in my group, like 3 of us graduated, others ended up in jail, rehab or found christ and went to a baptist college.

Guide to blazing in a dorm room.

Weatherstrip the door frame,

Place box fan in window pulling air out,

Place humid towel across the bottom of your door,

Light up.

Also had the same question, except black boots I'm interested in would go well with denim (think rockabilly style).

Thanks.

There's a ~$250 boot thread somewhere round these parts

But the best approach is sales, Yoox, Gilt, MyHabit, etc

If you wait 'til November (Cyber Monday!), there's a good chance you'll snag something nice that fits within your budget

This is rather weird that you guys have to hide from the cops.

Although I had a pretty boozey 18-21, I probably wouldn't mind if they raised the drinking age back up to 21. 18 year olds are so little. It also makes it very easy for high school kids to get drunk. Obviously was guilty of that myself, but I hate seeing 16 year old girls off their face. It's not a good look.
