There's a service run mostly by student volunteers here that offers free rides with no questions asked to people who call their number.  I believe you can get paid after a while, but most people just do it because of the hilarious experiences.  I guess most people who have done it have some pretty awesome stories to tell.

Except when someone yaks in your car. :(

Haha, that's what I was thinking.  It'd be terrible to clean up.  :P
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Haha, yeah, that's definitely occurred to me.  I'm guessing the organization either pays the damages or provides a vehicle for them to drive.

Our school only has a little over 1000 people and everything is in walking distance unless you want a ride into town/neighboring school about 10 minutes away. That's what pledges are for, though.

We have programs here where they go out in pairs, and drive you home in your own car, then the second person picks up the first. I might volunteer for that next holiday season.

Yeah, our campus is in the middle of the city it's in.  There are 26,000 undergraduates and I think the city is something like 100,000 people.  There's a bar on campus and a bunch of fraternity houses around stuff near campus, but a lot of people go off campus to party and drink, I think (I wouldn't know first hand :)).

I'm not sure what the percentage is, but I'd guess that only ~10% of the people in my college (not university, college -- the college of natural sciences) are involved with "Greek Life."

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Also funny that newby posted something about being gay less than a minute after my post, I was going to reply, "speaking of 'Greek Life'" but decided not to. :)

Lost our first game 11-12 in overtime. What's incredible about that is that we were down by 7 at the start of the 4th quarter (score was 3-10 them). Pole smokers couldn't handle us once we caught on fire. :(

I can not wait for Spring Break. It is going to be one of the best experiences of my entire life, I'm fairly certain.
