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.

The Tech reports 42% of MIT students considers themselves virgins (way higher than the national average), with chem majors the least likely to have had themselves deflowered. The report also discloses that 52% of non-virgin seniors have committed floorcest, or sex with dorm mates.

The Daily Free Press reports that while BU has set up special isolation rooms for students with flu-like symptoms, it's not segregating them from other students when it comes to the bathrooms they use. Some students object; BU says they're just overreacting.

The Tech reports MIT has changed the route of some of its student shuttle buses because of complaints from Back Bay residents about squeaky buses rattling their windows.

Ed. copy desk note: I'm betting the "Congress representative Martin Walsh" the Tech refers to is really state Rep. Marty Walz.

Boston Police report that beefed up patrols in Allston/Brighton have helped lead to the following stats since students returned last month: 27 students arrested, 11 criminal complaints issued and 138 tickets for violations of city ordinances have been handed out. Police add they have their legal eyes on local landlords:

Landlords and homeowners should be aware that criminal charges may be filed and pursued against them as a result of such an investigation if a violation is discovered.

That might be news to some of the Brighton residents interviewed by the Herald, who say they haven't seen much improvement since passage of, in the Herald's understated words, "a much-ballyhooed Hub ordinance meant to curb wild college booze bashes and overcrowding in student apartments."

BC official apologizes to residents for Saturday party that was supposed to end at 11 p.m. but instead raged on through the wee hours, the Globe reports.
