The college apartment environment can be equated to a foreign country. No one knows the inner-workings except natives. If you're an upperclassman, then you already know about the code all roommates should follow. If you're a freshman, then read up, because you don't want to be known as that roommate.

1. Saturdays are devoted to A) college football or B) nothing else.

2. Napping is a sacred act. You do not mess with nap time.

3. All closets are free game. Requirements can be put on special clothing items.

4. The vegan/vegetarian roommate will forever be referred to as the "outcast."

5. Said roommate's food is off limits (mostly because no one would want to touch it).

6. There is a mutual hatred of the people who live above or below you. Anything wrong with the house will therefore be blamed on them.

7. There is a standing invitation (and reserved seat in the car) for all roommates when going to Zaxby's, Chick-fil-A, or Bojangles.

8. When a breakup occurs, each roommate must take turns buying the necessary pint of Ben and Jerry's.

9. Sunday mornings are reserved for A) brunch, and B) recapping the weekend.
