2008-2009
The incoming class of the 2008-2009 year was boring as hell and did absolutely nothing amusing. Or more accurately, no one cared about the wiki that year. How sad.
Randy's room gets cupped (2007)
Doug, Jeff, and Dan covered Randy's floor, drawers, and shelves with styrofoam cups filled with water. Doug also changed Randy's desktop background to a photo of styrofoam cups. There were about 2586 cups.

Subject: [NH4] New House 4 residents, beware!
WARNING!
Keep an eye out for a shady-looking character who walks the floors of New House 4, rubbing people's heads. It is suggested that you never roam the halls alone so long as this culprit is on the loose. He is considered very dangerous and if you happen to see him, place your hand on his head and keep him at arm's length from you. Because of his short stature, he will unlikely be able to reach your head and will be temporarily stunned by this maneuver. Below is a picture of the NH4 Head Violator attacking his latest victim. Beware and be safe.

This rare breed of luck-giving creature will guarantee you success on your finals this term and 5's in all your classes in the next semester. All you have to do is approach carefully from behind and rub his luck giving head without him seeing you. BUT BEWARE! If he sees you first bad things may happen. Attached is a picture of a lucky fellow who has encountered the infamous Lucky Man.

The Dating Curve (2005)
Ken and Yin's dating curve shows the tradeoff between asking out girls that one knows well, thereby risking the loss of a friendship, and asking out girls that one does not know well, thereby having a high risk of being rejected. On the chart, it is noted that Ken prefers the former option (which is likened to a sniper rifle) while Yin prefers the latter (which is likened to a machine gun).
Professor Dan explains the dating curve to the Class of 2010
