Dear RAs and GAs,

in an email from our house dean

...I wanted to alert you to two very important things. First, please be alert and aware in these last days of the semester. This is a time when students sometimes blow off steam in inappropriate ways. Just last night a student was written up for getting drunk and lighting a chair on fire in the quad. Obviously, this is the kind of thinking that can be very, very dangerous to the student and all of us. In other words, don't sleep--it may be near the end, but we have to stay committed as this is in fact a peak time for certain kinds of problems....

you got to admit...lighting a chair on fire is at least more fun to write up than just general drunkenness...oh man.
