At UofC, during the orientation week, several faculities had to collect the most money to get points. Each pennies is worth 1 point, but any silvers or bills is worth negative of its value (Eg A dime is -10, a buck is -100, etc) The 'gneers collected the most money but they lost badly and they had to endure eating stuff from fear factor show, I wasn't there to see what it was exactly.
Also, the 'gneers also are planning to have a "pie week" where you can pay 5 bucks for them to pie somebody of your choice. But that target can double the money and pie you back.
The engineering students are also famous on campus for pranks including the top 5 below:
5. Snowman on Display: A snowman was built inside the Engineering Building. It was encased in a transparent refrigerator so it would not melt.
4. A Chrysler with Roots: Students dismantle and reassemble an old Chrysler around a tree on campus.
3. Special Permit Parking… on the rock: A Volkswagen Beetle was found resting atop the U of C’s beloved rock with a keg sitting on top of the Beetle. Emblazoned on the rock was “ENGG HRC.”
2. Adding a ‘Zipper’ to a Car: The ‘Zipper’ that is displayed in Science Theatres was nicely accessorized when a Nissan Micra was assembled around the artwork.
1. Arched Ambition: Top prize for the best HRC prank goes to the legendary hanging of a Toyota from the Chinook Arch.
Naturally, the money's going to charity, no car is burnt and no cops are hurt in the process...
