I had to make a post about this insanity. Apparently the first years in my university have started a fight club. It's so stupid and crazy. What are some crazy things that are happening or did happen in you guys' universities?

Probably the craziest thing that happened at my Uni was that we had this "moat" around my campus dorm that was absolutely foul, and we always used to joke about how disgusting it was and dare each other to swim it, then in my third year scientists actually found an as-yet-undiscovered new virus in there:

Damn that's crazy! And pretty close to home as I go to Concordia. Can't think of anything people at my uni have done in the pandemic that even comes close to that.

Luckily this particular virus poses no danger to humans apparently. Still, it's one of the largest viruses ever discovered:

That's pretty awesome to be fair. Much cooler than my story. Our first years are idiots.
