<p>I thought I'd resurrect a thread from the old CC that was quite entertaining. I made most of these up myself, so be forewarned that they might not be earth-shatteringly fantastic. Each of these could work for several different schools, but I put up the first one I thought of.</p>
<p>The only one I remember from the old thread is:
How many Yale students does it take to change a light bulb?
Nobody wants to - New Haven looks better in the dark.</p>
<p>How many Caltech students does it take?
11 - 1 to change it and 10 to ridicule the way MIT changed theirs.</p>
<p>How many USC students does it take?
5 - 1 to change it while the other 4 watch for gangs. (I know, I know...)</p>
<p>How many UChicago students does it take?
8 - 1 to change it and 7 to find the power of any electons that jumped off of a nearby piece of aluminum due to the photoelectric effect.</p>
<p>How many Reed students does it take?
4 - 1 to change it while the other 3 fend off any other students wanting to smoke the wire inside. (I know, I know...)</p>
<p>A classic:
How many Brown students does it take to change a light bulb?
The whole student body - To protest for the rights of the bulb.</p>
<p>I'll probably put up more later when I think of better ones. Feel free to add any yourself. :)</p>
<p>Here are some ivy ones from a post awhile ago....</p>
<p>How many Princeton students does it take to change a lightbulb? Two -- one to mix the martinis and one to call the electrician.</p>
<p>How many Brown students does it take to change a lightbulb? Eleven -- one to change the lightbulb and ten to share the experience.</p>
<p>How many Penn students does it take to change a lightbulb? Only one, but he gets six credits for it.</p>
<p>How many Harvard students does it take to change a lightbulb? One -- he holds the bulb and the world revolves around him.</p>
<p>How many Dartmouth students does it take to change a lightbulb? None -- Hanover doesn't have electricity.</p>
<p>How many Cornell students does it take to change a lightbulb? Two -- One to change the lightbulb and one to crack under the pressure.</p>
<p>How many Columbia students does it take to change a lightbulb? Seventy-six -- one to change the lightbulb, fifty to protest the lightbulb's right to not change, and twenty-five to hold a counter-protest.</p>
<p>i really don't understand the penn one...I go to penn and there are no credits. You have credit units and each class is either worth 1 cu or 1.5 (if the course has a lab)...I know most schools have credits and you get like 3 credits for one course. Maybe penn used to have them a long time ago when the joke developed...oh well.</p>
<p>penn's should have something to do with: jews, rich daddy's kids, cocaine, and wharton.</p>
<p>how many georgetown kids does it take?
the whole student body, one to screw it in, one to tell the other that he did it as well as any Ivy Leaguer, and the rest of the student body to reassure him (and themselves) that they are just as good as any ivy.</p>
<p>How many penn kids does it take?
4, one penn engineering student to screw it in, one whartonite who will get paid 7 figures to calculate the cost of screwing the bulb in, one nursing student to make sure no one gets hurt, and one college student to sit around and be jealous of the whartonite.</p>
<p>I love lightbulb jokes. I found these, so I can't claim credit.</p>

<p>Q: How many Sarah Lawrence students does it take to change a lightbulb?
A: Five--One to change the bulb and four to do an interpretive dance about
it.</p>

<p>Q: How many skaters does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Two: One to do it and one to film it.</p>
<p>the stanford one is a little incorrect... nobody says "dude" anymore.. except possibly UC santa cruz or santa barbara. more appropriately, the joke should be:
Q: How many Stanford Students does it take to screw in a light bulb?
A: Hella</p>
<p>this of course being a variation of the How many norcal people does it take...</p>
<p>(you have to be from here to get it, but ill explain, hella is a dumb word we use to fill in sentences, similar to "uhm" or "like".. although more often it is used in context of "a lot" or "many" or some sort of intensifier, like "the light bulb is hella bright"... come to san francisco, listen to two teenagers talk, you'll be amazed.</p>
