Alright, college is a time for fun, creativity and social exploration...and when the three come together it can be cause for some of the greatest amusement of your life. If you live on a hall you're bound to run into a prankster or two. Some of their gimmicks can be entertaining, but I've seen some pretty lame attempts at "pranking" someone. However, I have seen a few shots of mischief that have blown my mind and I always keep in reserve to nail someone with. So whether you want to prank your best friend or get back at someone on campus, these few ambitious insights may prove useful.

The Packing Peanut Invasion

Ok, know someone on campus who works in the mail room or maintenance? Even if you don't packing peanuts are easy to come by and can usually be bought in bulk for a small fee. Look at it this way, what is more satisfying than any other kind of prank? The kind that keeps coming back to haunt the person who got pranked.

Think of this: a dorm room covered in white packing peanuts. But that's not all...every drawer, pillowcase, couch, closet, bag, shoe, sock, desk and window is chock-full of peanuts. Every space behind shelves, couches, bed and desks is filled with the little buggers. Essentially, what can be a quick job turns out to be a prank still coming up for months. I witness my RA's room get nailed in this way around Christmas. Up until the last day of classes he was still coming across a stray peanut.

The Great Door Switch

This has to be my favorite, mainly because it is so creative, and yet so simple. Know someone who always locks their door? When you have the chance, sneak in and unscrew the hinges on his door while doing the same with another door on the hall (preferably of a person in on the prank!). Swap doors and reattach the hinges...but make sure to switch the nameplates and decorations on the doors...especially the door number. Lock the prankee's door and walk away.
