Freshmen Plays Halo 2 More than He Didn’t
NCU Freshmen Michael Zayers officially played Halo 2 for Microsoft’s Xbox for an astounding 15 hours yesterday. It all began when his alarm clock went off at 7:35AM for his first hour class. He quickly decided it was a grand opportunity to use one of his nine allowed skips. Once he ‘got into the zone’ he said he literally didn’t put down the game controller until approximately 10:45PM after a potential girlfriend, Sarah Defenbauer, finally called him.
Dyslexic Student Ridiculed for Praying to ‘Dog’
Chad Greenwich fought back tears after being laughed at during his class’s opening prayer. Greenwich was diagnosed as Dyslexic at age 7 and has been trying not to visualize words in his mind before saying them since that time. But upon being beckoned to open his Foundations of Leadership class with a word of prayer his nervousness got the best of him as he finished “In Dog’s name”. He has since switched to a different section and set up a meeting with the teacher so that he will never be called upon again.
Practical Joke Not Practical at All
Two Juniors in Phillipps Hall admittedly “had a good laugh” after they offered doctored salsa and chips to unknowing freshmen. The salsa had been tainted with extract of Habanero and a touch of Cheyenne. One freshmen, after diving into the supposed ‘treat’, ran screaming into his dorm room in search of dairy and/or bread, only to find that he only had single-use half and half coffee creamers. After ingesting 12, he proceeded back down to Clay Commons to finish his game of Rook, but was forced to take a detour towards the drinking fountain only to see the
tainted salsa once more in a soup of milky white half and half.
