Well I lived in a dorm that had students ranging from ages 16-40 (my school is really non traditional)...what most people including myself did during those times were:
1. Play spades...or dominoes
2. Somebody would get their radio, and a whole bunch of mix dancehall/reggae cd's, and we would dim the lights in the lobby and hold something we would call (Club Bay Vista [that was the name of our residence hall])
3. Hop in the car and go to wal-mart
4. Just sit and wait for the drunk dorm residents to come back from the club and fall out in the lobby

5. Go buy a whole lot of chips, liquor, etc, and have a party in someone's room (those were the best!)
I miss dorm life....but not enough to pay 3000 a semester for a room
