You Know You Live in a College Town When...

You know you live in a college town when...

- during the first two weeks and two weeks after move-in the city runs their garbage crews every other day, rather than once a week

- wal mart has every item you'd ever need for a dorm room out in the garden center, but nothing you'd ever use in an apartment

- the town's population rises by 60% when school starts

- the old people start complaining in June about how those "loud kids" will be back soon

- you see someone with another school's emblem on and know they're not from here

- there's already rumors floating around the town about which greek is going to get kicked off campus this year

During Saturdays in the Fall you put up your sign in the front yard: "PULL IN, $10 PARKING".

the campus shuttle route has a stop at your condo building.

everyone in your building is connected to the university (retired professors, students with deep pockets, admin, etc).

You know people who went to elementary school, junior high, high school, and college within 10 miles of each other.

You know a person who's lived in the same town all his life and he got a PhD without ever having to leave.
