This thread brings back good memories, luckily my CA was a pretty awesome guy and I never got caught doing anything.
I didnt read through everyone's response, but i had one of these -- empty beer can was left in my room by a friend at 3 am. RA happened to walk by and saw it. I ended up getting kicked out of the dorm.
Hall Director said when I met with him, I wasn't "apologetic enough".
What ****** me off the most, was that a couples week prior, kids on my floor had a party and got caught. Well, there were no dorm rooms available to move them to (supposedly), so they got to stay. Yet, I have a friend leave an empty beer can in my room and I get kicked out.
Cyclonedave can vouch for this.

We are lucky that we don't go to private schools. Private schools are not as nice as public institutions when it comes to the punishment. I was the judicial officer/hall director for one of the private school and I used to give out monetary fines for first time offenders. Typically I charged $135 for any alcohol related violations (second time was $250, and third was getting kicked out of housing).
When you go meet with your hall director, just be sincere and apologetic of what you have done. I typically did let them off if they were nicer.
Good luck!

Question for curiosity: What constitutes "nice" in applying punishment? Is it nicer to let someone experience consequences for breaking rules they agreed to follow or nicer to let them off the hook?
I'm just curious in between books here.

That's a deep though. Is your name Jack Handy? Wait, too philisophical for that...
Good lord. Times have changed.
Got sent to council for launching fireworks down the hallway during a power outage. We did do this every time we had a brown-out throughout the semester except for the evening they actually wrote us up for it. We were at Hardee's on Welch at the time. For some reason we actually had the receipt that placed us at Hardee's 1 minute before they wrote us up as the culprits. We went to council presented the receipt, and claimed the HRA's always had it in for us.
Dismissed.
Our RA's were always cool if you were smart. Never bugged us as long as the music wasn't loud and you threw a towel at the bottom of the door.
We did have to do a little diversion when bringing kegs in though (and ducks, and pheasants, and quail - but that's another story.)

Lol love it. That and maybe a paper towel tube with dryer sheets stuffed inside. :wideeyed:
My friends dad had a story from UNI back when all of the halls and rooms were concrete (no carpeting). They used to stick a can of lighter fluid under someone's door, squirt it in and light it so there would be a line of fire down the middle of the room. Mind you, this was before computers and most electronics, so there would not be any cords or anything on the ground. I thought that was great.
We filled one of the economy sized trash cans up with water and tilted it against our RA's door. Another time (at UNI), we poured a few of the economy sized trash cans filled with water in one of the sky walks connecting Noehren to the dining center during winter time. Froze up and they had to shut it down for a week because there were no heaters in the sky walk.
