You Know You Go to NYU When…

Dorm Life

• You walk out into your hallway and immediately get second-hand high
• You pay up to $4 to do a load of laundry
• You know the hell of living in Chinatown or even worse, the financial district.
• You live in the largest dorm in the country, but cannot identify any of your neighbors
• You don’t directly know your next door neighbor, but the guy who sits next to you in history dated the brother of his roommate from last year’s best friend. (Affectionately called, Six Degrees of NYU)
• You live in a university dorm, and still have a ½ hour commute to campus
• When you have to identify yourself every single time you go into your dorm, no matter if you just walked out of it
• Your dorm is conveniently located between a corrections facility and a homeless shelter (My dorm for three years now!)
• Sometimes you’re too lazy to order take out because you would have to walk downstairs
• Your desk chairs rock back and forth (and you know it is possible to fall backwards)

Social Scene

• “Parties” contain no more than 20 people and are broken up by 1am at the latest.
• When “Sorority Row” is a hallway
• You’ve starred in an NYU student film, whether you know the director or not
• Ignoring people is a way of life
• Half your friends are from Long Island, the other half from New Jersey

Academics

• Your mascot is either a flower or the library card catalog
• The football team is undefeated.because it doesn’t exist
• You can take Irish language as a course and not think it’s weird
• When ½ your graduating class is just in college waiting for their big break
• People have studio instead of classes
• You walk into Stern without a suit and people give you funny looks
• You pay the highest tuition in the world (thank you John Sexton!)
• You hate Columbia with a passion, mainly because you didn’t get in

Campus

• Two words: Elevator Rage.
• Your campus lawn is also home to bums and pot dealers. (hey, it’s not NYU without the park)
• When the only way to get a tan is to lie out on the sidewalks of NYC
• Tischies and Sternies can immediately be identified at first glance.
• When you take the N/R from Union Square one stop to campus every time it rains or snows
• When your university is the largest private real estate holder in the city
• You scream in exasperation “No! I don’t want to go to your comedy club! I don’t like to laugh!”
• There is always construction, but nothing actually seems to change
• You go for a walk in flip-flops and when you come back and your toes are black
• Chelsea counts as uptown
• You accidentally wander onto film sets
• You know the bums on the street by name
• Everyone on the street has headphones on or a cell phone
• The highlight of the day is the return of Mr. Softee
• The snow is either a lovely shade of yellow or brown

omg NYU :3, i miss it.
