There once was a conservative college in the mid-west that had a standing rule, the heat was not to be turned on in the dormitories (hostel) prior to a certain date. Unfortunately, one year, winter decided to rear its ugly head early. Students in both the men's and women's dormitories complained about the bitter cold, but were told that nothing could be done. After days of no heat and no respite in immediate sight, the ladies realized that their dorm faced the equally cold men's dorm. They turned a bed sheet into a banner with the message: "TURN ON THE HEAT OR WE'LL TURN ON THE BOYS!" |
