Manners

Being that it's finals (cramming) week, the ever-popular "Midnight Madness" continues. In case you aren't aware, Midnight Madness consists of 200-300 college boys gathering together at midnight in the Morgenstern lounge during finals week for various types of food provided by the student council. At least that is the "Midnight" part of it. The "Madness" is the chaos that ensues when 200-300 college boys gather for food in Morgenstern lounge. This "Madness" certainly doesn't require the time to be midnight, the location to be the Morg lounge or even the atmosphere to be one of finals-angst.
At various increments throughout the year there are similar occasions where free food is served: Superbowl party, orientation events, student council sponsored bar-be-ques... And the result is always the same: hundreds of college-aged men acting like boys, to say the least. I will admit, there have been times that I want the food too and I may be hungry, but that is no excuse for all of the pushing and shoving that goes on. People should learn to stand in line like a normal person and take when it is their turn, not crowd around a few tins of food like a bunch of animals around a trough.
I would continue and elaborate but I think the point is clear.
