Some University of Miami (FL) rumors:
-one of the sororities that got in trouble for hazing supposedly at one point made girls swallow goldfish to "earn their gold."
-one of the frats had half of their pledges (8- originally had 16 pledges) drop on their first day of pledging this past semester because they made them do lines of coke.
-the palm trees on campus cost $30,000 (approx. one student's tuition)
-the fake palm trees in the Wellness Center where I work cost $20,000 each (there are 4 of them in the atrium inside).
-there's an alligator in our lake on campus (this is actually true, I've seen it... but for a long time, no one knew).
-this one kid (who was a Kappa Sigma pledge in 2001) drowned in the lake while swimming in it during a hurricane and while drunk... that's all true, but some have said that one of the reasons he drowned was because one of the filters at the bottom had suction and pulled him under.
Oh, and this isn't my school, but I heard that 3 out of 4 students at FSU have an STD. I doubt that's true though
