On lecturer back-handed a girl in the face by accident lol.
Also, another likes animal development but had to show us a human embryo. On the next slide he had just covered the same pic of the human embryo with a cartoon lamb. It was a very strange moment.

not a story from uni but involves uni: in my last year of sixth form a woman came to give a talk on what York uni had to offer for students wanting to go to uni in there own city and options for abroad studies. Anyway for some reason can't remember what she was stood on a chair in the middle of the assembly hall talking to everyone, she was quite fat aswell. Needless to say the combination of being borderline obese and inappropriate use of a seat led to the chair legs giving way and her falling flat on her arse in front of 120+ people followed by dead silence bar the one bulgarian student who let out a snorty high pitched laugh. That was in the first 15 minuites she spent the rest of the time with a purple face swetting profusely, how embarassing!

pretty funny.
wow that must have been very dramatic to watch hahahaha- nice attempt from the guy lol
I drank much the night before a lecture.

I was running late by ten mins by the time I got into the lecture. I got all my stuff out and was taking notes for about 5 mins before I had to jump two rows of seats and run for the loo.

Basically, I didn't quite make it out the door before I was sick in the doorway/hall.

Ended up sitting outside the building grabbing some air 'n downing water when the lecturer exited 'n gave me a cringy wee wink 'n chuckle.

the day my stats lecturer walked into the white board was pretty hilarious....that certainly broke the ice.

The day i got locked out of my room just after i had my shower i usually lock my door when going into the shower but this time my card stopped working....luckily my next door neighbour was around and she went to reception to get a new key!
I went out on my mate's 19th birthday dressed as a transvestite, but managed to lose everyone I was with after going to the toilet in a club that evening.
So I walked home to halls [about half an hour walk] dressed in nothing more than red tights and a polka-dot nightdress and tripped over a pavement.

You may laugh, but i'm left with a scar on my hand from where my hand landed on a stone and a chunk of flesh came out, needed 6 stitches.

Ah well :p:

Then there was the time I had a gallon of punch at a house party...needless to say I never went home that night.

Ok, so the lecturer was discussing "assenence". The girl in front, turned around and asked if "assenence was the new Mark Jacobs perfume". Friend beside me then proceeded to ask said girl if she had ever studied grammar, to which she replied " No I went to a comprehensive "

Hello :smile:,

I have stories that could last a life time from my two years at university (I can only imagine what awaits me in my third year).

One story from the end of last year;
On my course at the end of the year we have a 'drama party'. Where all the first, second and third years from the course gather, pass down advice to each other, share stories and small sketches and give out awards. On this particular party my friend swore he wouldn't go sober and turned out extremely drunk on vodka.

Now; before I continue; you should know that this friend is notorious for doing the full monty (stripping) whenever 'You Can Leave Your Hat On' is played at a party, so we decided to play it at the party.

Long story short he got down to his boxers in front of our lecturers, all they could do was laugh and was say "oh well, we've seen worse".

Again, my stories could carry on forever but that's one that always makes me chuckle!

:biggrin:
