... the microwaves were gone because during the '97-'98 school year some student who called himself the Unistencher would put a bowl full of pasmesan cheese in 'em and turn them on high for about 10 minutes. You've never smelled anything so awfull. The guy sent a picture (dressed up like the Unibomber) and a manifesto to The Observer, but they wouldn't print it because it "wasn't real news". I fought to have 'em run it, but I was only a sophmore and was in charge of layout, not editorial content so I had no say.

Must have changed their minds on the waffle irons after the fires. The dining hall pranks were always instant classics.
