Free stadium cups are a constant at my school.

Also those feminine goody boxes. And hey, how about student health center birth control?? It may not be free, but $3/month ain't too shabby. Saves me $27 every 28 days!

I liked those "Good Stuff" boxes that the bookstore used to pass out at the beginning of every semester -- it had Tylenol, Nyquil, deoderant, and tampons.

In the fall, the Board of Publications gave out student planners for free. Those always came in handy.

But my favorite had to be the annual Valentines' Day Condom Fair. I never saw so many damn varieties of condoms in my life! The whole point was to walk away with as many condoms as you could.

oooh, those are good too. For National Condom Week the health center does coloreds and flavoreds and makes these great posters that are stolen within a few hours...

My favorite freebie at college was the ice cream fair they had around finals week. You could basically create your own sundae with anything you wanted and then head off to class They also sponsered a free happy hour for the graduating seniors a few days before graduation. And a cookout....I guess I am not doing a good job of just picking one item, am I?

$3 a month? Damn, my school charges $14, and my father's insurance only makes me pay $8. My school is a rip-off.

I have to go for the free food. Mmm-good.

It's free at my school (the birth control that is). But really, when I consider how much I pay for school health insurance it's not actually that great.


My favourite freebie was the laundry bags they gave out Orientation week. So. Useful.

Free stuff at UofM-D? Hmm... free cookies during some booths, Panhel gives out free candy during rush, some groups have free pizza but it goes fast, there are always free food things ACROSS campus from where everyone hangs out (yep we're lazy... it's a small campus). During Welcome Week they give out SOME free stuff... nothing interesting tho.

I guess condoms wouldn't be very helpful on a commuter campus, unless people are gona go have sex in their car in the parking structure .

Rick-- condoms AND lube? W...T...F?

All about the "Guys" boxes you get at the bookstore for free. Dug the razors and deoderant.

Also free OTC medicine, tylenol, drixoral, condoms. All free and you could grab handfuls of it at a time. Woudl last me months.

I got that stuff too. They put it in a pretty box. Razors were included also.

Free condoms from the health center. Of course, I never had the chance to use them myself.

I love when Lexis-Nexis and WestLaw come and whore themselves out in the law school.

They bring food. Good stuff. Packages of chex mix, grandma's cookies, sunchips, all sorts of awesome stuff...I've eaten lunch off those people many times.

Plus they're always giving out mini-notebooks, pens, etc. Westlaw gave out these really really nice mugs earlier in the year.

Law school freebies are much better than college...that's the only thing about law schol that's better than college
