Joshua reports a bunch of creationists will be handing out doctored copies of Darwin's "The Origin of Species" (in which they claim that Hitler was a Darwinian) tomorrow at Harvard, MIT, Tufts, Brandeis and BC. More on the "new" edition.

Tufts Daily reports police officers responding to a fire alarm in one dorm entered one student's room to find no student but: "a marijuana cigarette on a computer tray; a plastic bag with what appeared to be hallucinogenic mushrooms; four plastic baggies with marijuana; two boxes of full, unused CO2 cartridges, numbering approximately 40 cartridges; and two pieces of a pipe that screwed together with a balloon on one end. They also discovered a box with 150 used CO2 cartridges."

If only the dorm were on the Medford side of the campus: In addition to citations for drug possession, the room's occupant will be cited for possessing inhalants, which is illegal in Somerville, where the dorm is located.

The competition is underway at MIT.

Huntington News reports that when Northeastern police asked a particular student about her alleged drug sales, "she admitted she supplied friends with drugs for money, but insisted that she was not a dealer because she didn't make enough profit."

NorthEndWaterfront.com reports on a trifecta of out-of-control parties in the North End, including one on Halloween at 224 Hanover St.:

... College students were throwing bottles and cans down to the street. The police initially had difficulty gaining access when a male dressed in a baby's outfit refused to open the door. BPD eventually gained access and the officers detained 15-20 Suffolk university students. There probably were more at the party which had dispersed as the police entered. ...

The Daily Free Press reports a BU dean admires the creativity of students doing mashups to protest a cut in the number of pages they can print for free on university printers, but says his hackles were raised when they remixed a bunker scene from a movie about the fall of Hitler.

That particular clip has been used to protest and comment on everything from getting banned from Xbox Live to Sarah Palin's resignation.

"I don't want to own my own printer!" Hitler yells at one point.

Ed. note to BU journos: Interesting story, but, really, guys, why not link to the video the story is about?

The Huntington News reports a Northeastern student tried the old trick of stuffing a towel under her door and using a window fan to keep people in her dorm from knowing she was smoking pot. Unfortunately for her, it was 10:15 a.m. and a passing Northeastern police officer noticed the smoke coming out of her window and went to investigate. Now she has to answer to the college disciplinary office.

Tufts Daily reports cops didn't have much trouble convincing a student at Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy they had the goods on her for vandalizing some freshly poured sidewalk cement:

"Kind of easy to catch when you write your own name in there," TUPD Sgt. Robert McCarthy said.

Fortunately for her, the cement had yet to set, so she was able to smooth it out - under the watchful eye of campus police.

The Crimson reports on the shame brought down on the Harvard Business School because of an altercation outside a party at a Lansdowne Street bar on Friday that ended with one student charged with assault and battery on a police officer and at least one injury: A "male student who badly cut his foot after removing his high heels."

The Heights reports plans are in the works to monitor noise from Modstock this spring, to prevent more problems with neighbors.

The Heights itself opines neighboring residents shouldn't let their feelings about "university expansion, the passage of the Master Plan, the possibility of residence halls on the Brighton Campus, the degradation of the neighborhood brought on by absentee landlords and the havoc students are known to wreak in the community" color their judgment about parties on campus.
