What is your favorite thing about IU?

Recommended Posts

Is that Village Pantry still behind North Jordan? Many late nights stumbling into that place for a 4 dollar deli sub.

 

First place I bought beer while underage.  My friend worked there, told me to come in at a certain time when the store was usually not busy.  As I walked up with the 2 cases of Miller Lite, 2 cops got in line directly behind me!  My friend calmly asked for my ID, checked it and handed it back (wasn't even a fake, and I looked about 16).  Thought my heart was going to pound out of my chest!  We walked back to Foster with that, the paper bags tore, and my RA was doing a floor check.  I hid the beer in the basement laundry room, went to my room and got my laundry basket, put the beer in it and piled the clothes back on it, and walked right by my RA :)

Teter's great. You can walk to anywhere on campus.

What building are you in?

Teter sucks. I unfortunately got stuck there. Northwest is by far the best place to live and its not even close.

I was in Forest my freshman year. Compared to that, Teter was a damn blessing.

The RA's are all strict and the girls are sub par at best compared to Northwest. Unless you're lucky and get a decent RA, Teter is zero fun.

Teter is definitely not as good as Northwest, but you're also close to Wright food court and Forrest which has an amazing cafeteria. Literally, restaurant quality food. Either way, a dorms a dorm and they all suck compared to living off campus lol. Just enjoy it. You shouldn't be in your room much anyway.

I lived in McNutt DeJoya Fall 2009-2010. I loved it there and met a lot of friends. I remember coming home late one night and walking on the ground floor and ran into CWAT and Bobby Capo playing N64 with two bombshells babes and I stuck my head in and chatted with them for a bit.

 

I also went to Teeter a lot because the Wright food court was pretty sweet (those chicken wraps were amazing). Also, a buddy of mine and I made friends with a bunch of girls on Teeter Wissler Five. Nothing gets you into a party faster than three guys with about nine good looking girls with them. My current GF of a few years came from that floor.

 

A really cool thing I did at IU occurred the fall of my Senior year. I had a class at Woodburn that went until 11:15 every tuesday and thursday. My good buddy (the same as the one above) also had it with me.  On Thursdays we had the lecture and then the discussion for the class a couple hours later. Every Thursday for 16 weeks we went to KOK for lunch and a Bloody Mary in between these classes. We were so frequent that about a month in the server would have our table ready with a Bloody Mary and wouldn't ask us for our I.D.'s. My friend and I still tell that story to people (I got an A and he got an A-).

 

Also people are talking about Mother Bears, a good cheap pizza place that is a bit of a hole in the wall is Swing-Ins Pizza. 812 330-0000. Do yourself a favor and try that out. Their Stroms are amazing.

I hate to sound like a total freshman, but are the Villas a good place for parties? I'd like to keep police contact to a minimum haha

The cops are usually looking for people tripping and falling or doing blatantly stupid things. Just be smart and you can avoid them. Also, don't ever be holding alcohol at tailgates if you're underage. They've cracked down so much these last two years.
