Communication Challenges
Submitted by a Grad Student who serves as a Hall Director:
A student who I am not Facebook friends with FB messages me at 2am on Monday morning explaining she just saw my email telling her she had a judicial for Monday and can't make it. She explains that she FB messaged me because she didn't know how else to contact me.
Her email must not have a reply button.

I Swear I am An Honor's Student
A student ordered herself an honors cord and it showed up at the office and it turned out was not the right color nor was she permitted to order it herself!
A Whole New Meaning of Multi-Tasking
On the way to work a student affairs staff member saw a student brushing his teeth while running to class. Puts a whole new spin on multi-tasking... wonder where he spit it all out?
Can't Even Handle Orientation
Let's set the scene... During summer orientation, incoming freshmen have the chance to get acclimated to campus life. Evening activities are planned for the students, and typically include a slip-n-slide, tug o' war, Twister, etc. Alcohol is strictly prohibited since we are a dry campus. Now for the good stuff...
Freshman male gets completely drunk during his visit to campus for orientation. So drunk, in fact, that he is sitting in the middle of the parking lot crying out for his mommy. The next morning, the Dean of Students is forced to go wake him up because he missed registering for classes. The Dean of Students finds the student curled up in the fetal position on his Superman sleeping bag. The Dean of Students has to return to the student's room two more times to try and wake him up. After the third attempt, the Vice President of Student Life then goes and forces the student out of bed. Later on that afternoon, a few staff members see the student sitting on a bench with his head between his knees. After asking him how he was doing, the student replies, "I should have gone to community college."
