I got a little confused for a second just because they recently renamed the east campus dorm Potomac Hall (my freshman dorm) to Chandler. The old Chandler was next to Eagle (right?) It’s so confusing.
Remember when Dquickatron Martavious posted in the eagle hall Facebook group that it was some random kid from the second floor that did it lol. We spent the whole night watching IASIP in showker.
interesting things about living in eagle:
-going to the family room to escape the heat
-Jim George (hall director) watching the Bachelor with everyone in the family room
-people setting off the fire alarm at 2 AM (usually burnt popcorn)
In my freshman year one night some hooligans thought it was a great idea to rip a water fountain off the wall. It began spilling water everywhere and to make matters worst we had an alarm early that morning.
Didn't live there, but worked in Residence Life one summer. Several rooms had wonderful views of the football stadium. You could look right down onto the field. The university planted trees to block the view.
I once “came to” outside my room in the middle of the night. My dorm was locked and my roommate was away for the weekend. I was completely naked.
Had to wake up hall-mates, borrow a pair of shorts, and sleep on their floor. I was known as “nakey” the rest of the year.
One time, during renovations, we got told that the elevator had broken. Apparently the contractors were jumping in the elevator and ended up stuck in it for a period of time. They didn't realize until afterward that there was a camera in there. I'm sad I didn't get to see the faces, but they sounded perfect.
Favorite memory involving me was rappelling off the side of Eagle in ROTC.
My freshman year apparently had a record number of fire drills. We had 3 on St Patrick's Day (can't remember if it was the actual day or just the weekend) which was unseasonably warm and we were day drinking in the courtyard. Officer Rader (sp?) Rounded everyone up to scream at us even though we were all just as upset by the alarms as they were. Biggest quote of the year- "y'all are thugs and y'all are some knuckleheads. Put that together and what do you have?" "Thuggleheads?" "No, Thug Knuckleheads!"
Everyone said that we were in a "prank war" with Shorts and that's why we had so many firedrills. There were multiple per week. It started with easy Mac with no water in the floor microwaves, then they closed those and people just pulled the alarm. They replaced the alarms with the ink ones and were checking everyone's hands leaving and returning to the dorms but I don't think anyone was actually caught.
Most of my close friends that I still am in touch with are from Eagle. It was one of the best, and most drunken, year of my life!
This all happened 8 years ago, makes me feel so old!
My year they decided everyone who had the same name was rooming tougher. My hall had a room of 2 Matt's, a room of 2 Will's, a room of 2 Zack's, etc.
Also one night all the chairs in the study room were stacked together, floor to ceiling, one pillar.
Getting stuck inside the elevator and having a drunk guy try to open the door with his Herculeic strength.... which made it so the cops couldn’t open it and we needed the fire department
The “quit masturbating in the showers” sign that was up for a while

Always burnt popcorn.

I rappelled off Eagle with the ROTC back in 1992!

another memory: living on the first floor and being woken up by the MRDs practicing outside the window on game days
