Dorm or Apartment Extravaganza:
1. Advertise your oh-so-fantastic party on Facebook. It’s easy, everyone who’s anyone is on it and most importantly, it’s free.Diversions Tip: Don’t advertise the alcohol part if you’re underage. No need to risk getting busted.
2. Buy lots of beer – but don’t serve it as the main course. Snacks are essential if only to absorb some of the alcohol so you don’t spend Sunday evening scraping vomit off your carpet.
3. For your cheapest snack option, find a small freshman girl with extra meal points, quickly befriend her and convince her to spend her meal points on you at the Diner or one of the campus convenience stores. Viola – a fully stocked snack table.
4. Find a dollar store and lose control. Blue, white, black and yellow crepe paper in honor of the teams make every party more interesting.
