NYU students can be identified by their head-to-toe NYU logo plastered gear.
Continuing our late-breaking NYU coverage, The New York Post published an article yesterday, "CONFESSIONS OF AN NYU FRESHMAN." It's one big lie. Not that I'm shocked and awed at the amusingly sensationalist Post, but this is ridiculous: near-total fabrication, what appear to be real facts mixed with common knowledge and hearsay woven together into a tell-all by "Anyonymous":
"There's a guy who runs a poker room, and there are parties three or four nights a week. People do lines in the bathrooms, some kid makes like 700 bucks a week dealing and you can pretty much get any drug you want without ever leaving the dorms...Ritalin is no longer the drug of choice for studying. It's Adderall, and it's really easy to buy. It's only like $5 a pill, and people love it. People buy Vicodin and Perks, too, from kids who have had muscle strains and stuff. They're not dealers, they're just NYU entrepreneurs. "
Is this even fake newsworthy?
Tabloid journalism is one thing but ouch, there's Shattered Glass in my eye.
Further salacious details include tales of upperclassmen scoping out the freshmen using the collegiate successor to Myspace, Facebook, referred to as the "get face book."
Shame on you, New York Post, for making us love your titillating tawdriness!
