pay the bill
Princeton: Two--one to mix the martinis and one to call the

experience
Dartmouth: None--Hanover doesn't have electricity
Cornell: Two--One to change the lightbulb and one to crack under the
pressure
Penn: Only one, but he gets six credits for it
Columbia: 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
Yale: None--New Haven looks better in the dark
Harvard: One--he holds the bulb and the world revolves around him
MIT: Five--one to design a nuclear powered one that never needs
changing, one to figure out how to power the rest of Boston using that
nuked lightbulb two to install it, and one to write the computer
program that controls the wall switch
Vassar: Eleven--one to screw it and ten to support its sexual
orientation
Middlebury: Five--One to change the lightbulb and four to find the

high off the old one

bulb out of the socket
Williams: The whole student body--when you're snowed in, there's
nothing else to do
Tufts: Two--one to change the bulb and the other to say loudly how he
did it as well as an Ivy League student
Sarah Lawrence: Five--one to change the bulb and four to do an
interpretive dance about it
Swarthmore: Eight--it's not that one isn't smart enough to do it,
it's just that they're all violently twitching from too much stress
Boston University: Four--one to change the bulb and two to check his
math homework
Wesleyan: Wesleyan's boycotting GE... you know, military-industrial

Connecticut College: None--they are all too drunk to notice
Virginia: Thirteen--Ten to form student committee to vote on whether

Bowdoin: Three--one to ski down to the general store and buy the
bulb, one to take the chairlift back to school, and one to screw it
in
Boston College: Seven--one to change the light bulb and six to throw
a party because he didn't screw it in upside down this time
Santa Clara University: One--but you would never know about it
because only Cal and Stanford gets press for changing their lightbulbs
