Item 1: Early this semester, I went grocery shopping, put my groceries in the communal hall fridge, since I thought my former roommate was coming to pick up her fridge any day. By about a week later, three of my 7 yoghurts had been stolen.
Item 2: Last week, I made a fruit salad to bring to a Shabbat lunch. I put the bowl in the communal fridge, by the next day at lunch time, the bag around the bowl had been ripped open, and all the peaches but two slices had been stolen out and eaten presumably, and the rest of the salad had been mixed (in an attempt, perhaps, to hide the theft- heh).
Item 3: Went to retrieve the bowl from the fridge so I could empty the left over fruit salad and use it to make a new one of the same for tonight's dinner. THis time, they've frickin' stollen my Bowl. What the heck could someone want with a cheap large mixing bowl? Guess I'm making fruit salad in two small bowls instead. Grr.

item 2. i think in most cases its a result of growing up under conditions of extreme material privilege
item 3. brandeis kids may be pretty exceptionally shameless (when all else fails, resort to generalization)
item 4. i said elaborate. does sleeping in the common space sound elaborate, maya? come on. im talking pulleys and alarms and hamster wheels. at the very least you should be able to incorporate an inclined plane. whats a ca? is that like an ra? and youre probably better off without cameras. my life is pretty thoroughly surveilled, and its some creepy ass big brother shit.
item 5. you can always get your own apartment with your own frig, or at least, a communal frig with a significantly narrowed down list of potential thieves. i bet theres plenty of comparably convenient, comparably priced off-campus housing options. or, at least, thats how it is here.
