There are, of course, some fairly standard pranks that are pulled in
residence. Typically, people are shafted on their birthday which is
therefore a hazardous date to reveal. Total demolition of a room is quite
common, but lacks any real humor. A common shaft is to remove everything
from the victims room and set it up somewhere else exactly as it was. The
best examples I saw of this were: a room moved to the roof of a science
building, a room moved to the front courtyard of the residence (really
funny when it started to snow!) and a room moved to the dining hall.
