While I wasn't making art in Microsoft Paint, I spent most of the last 4 years coming up with master pranks to pull on the University. I have long forgotten many of them, but there are a few that I should still pull off in my last 6 weeks of college. Here are the top 5.
5.The Horrendous Video Homepage
Plot: Many of the classrooms have a built in computer system that can be operated by anyone without login. The prank involves changing the set homepage to one of the most disgusting shock videos on the interwebs. When one of the professors attempts to access the internet during class everyone vomits on the person in front of them.
Havoc Level: Pretty high for whomever was teaching the class, and all of their students.
Worst Case Consequences if Caught: Infraction of some computer code. Probably a harsh reprimand and written apology. Possible expulsion.
4. Men's Final Four Banner Theft
Plot: Simply put I always wanted to steal the 1992 and 1993 Michigan Men's final four banners that were taken down from Crisler. Maybe this isn't very much of a prank as it is downright theft.
Havoc Level: Low to medium. People would want to know where they are, but would anyone really notice they were missing from the basement of the Bently Historical Library.
Worst Case Consequences if Caught: Charges of B+E along with theft of University Property. Probably not expelled.
3. Michigan Sign Graffiti
Plot: Ever since freshmen year Paul and I were planning on doing a little mock up to the current sign for the "Harry Vaughn School of Public Health". Our plan was to change it to the "Harry Wang School of Pubic Health". It is actually pretty easy and only would take a few changes to the current sign. This one was probably the most feasible.
Havoc Level: Minimal. I really doubt the campus would be up in arms about the hilarious name change.
Worst Case Consequences if Caught: Destruction of University Property. Possible graffiti tickets.
2. Bus System Disruption
Plot: Each bus has a microchip that control the start up processes for the bus. If this microchip were to be removed it would yield the buses totally unusable. Sneaking in to the bus depot late at night and stealing all of these chips would be a very good prank.
Havoc Level: Huge. This would prevent most engineers from getting to north campus, the residents of North Campus wouldn't be able to get to central and would leave a lot of people stranded at bus stops waiting a long time for buses that aren't coming. This would also affect the hospital staff who park in off campus lots. The entire university could come to a screeching halt.
Worst Case Consequences if Caught: Expulsion, as well as multiple counts of destruction of property, Theft and B+E. This would be a very bad prank to pull.
1. Lecture Hall RickRoll
Plot: There are a few lecture halls that inexplicably have a telephone in the front of them. This prank would involve getting into the projection room of a lecture hall and then calling that phone. When the professor answers, you would ask him if is a "stranger to love" and if he knows the rules, cause so do I. Then fade in with a RickRoll on the lecture halls main speakers. Then proceed to put the music video on the screen.
Havoc Level: I imagine most of the class would get the joke and enjoy a unique RickRoll.
Worst Case Consequences if Caught: Infraction of some computer code. Probably a harsh reprimand.

Hoo, boy. These are good. I can get you in the rafters of Chrysler, but that's about it.
On second thought, I do have some duty cards you could borrow. Just slip them under my door when you're done using them.
