Shift Buzz A “Rolling Stone” investigation into the dark underbelly of Dartmouth frats reveals a lot of unsavory stuff, but possibly the strangest is the prevalence of vomit. Dartmouth frat boys appear to spend basically all their time barfing.

Youre moved in to a dorm, youve made some friends, youre sick from dining hall food. College is fun, now isnt it! If you enjoy free alcoholic beverages, rowdy people, sweating and crowded spaces its probably time to head to a frat party.
Brosephaurus Brendan spends his Saturday nights probably not unlike a number of other college dudes, bathing drunk in a tub filled with Natty Lites. Take note, Playgirl: this is how you capture a dumb jock in all his glory. Levi, to the bath!
Science Buzz The pen-tailed tree shrew (yes that guy over to the left) loves to booze, but can’t get drunk. Let me clarify: The nectar of choice for this little critter has an alcohol content slightly less than that of beer. Scientists observe that even though this shrew consumes levels of alcohol that would intoxicate humans, it does not exhibit any signs of inebriation. Sounds to me like the perfect frat house pet.
TV Buzz The new show about a high school geek who joins a fraternity once he gets to college is getting unexpectedly good reviews. The premiere of its second season aired on ABC Family last week and this is the first we’ve heard about this show. If anything, we’re thankful there’s something to watch while we’re waiting for the new episode of the Hills to air on Monday nights. There’s even a sort of indie-emo-looking dude on it.
