Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 3236082, member: 1414"] I get a kick out of these posts. From a party/wildness perspective, it's pretty clear that: 70's>80's>90's>00's>01's>10's. I'm not sure about the 60's. Maybe early 60's were more calm, weighing down the average. I showed up at a transition period in 1984. I missed being grandfathered to the 18 year drinking age by less than 12 months. So those arriving in 1983 and prior could almost all drink legally as freshmen. [LIST] [*]In 1983 you could drink openly in dorm halls. In 1984 we had the "in transit" rule so you could drink in halls if you were moving. Around the World parties filled that need nicely. By 1985 they killed that idea. [*]Also in 1984 we had Pub Night at Towers common area, buying glass pitchers that we could refill at kegs in the common area. Previously they held this even at ROTC campus wide. By 1985-86 it was gone for good. [*]In 1984 and 85 kegs were banned in dorms, but not from campus. So we tapped one in the back a a hatchback, filled buckets, put them in a milk crate, tied phone line to it and hauled it up to the 3rd floor Lafayette bathroom, filled the glass pitchers we had from pub night. Repeat. [*]From 85-87 we had MTV broadcasting live from campus during spring weekend. That was really amazing. [*]I recall snowball fights pitting thousands against thousands (Towers, Jungle Frats combined to attack South/Alumni/West). My friend got a broken eardrum out of it. Many, many windows also got broken. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
