College RAs Share The Memorable Events They’ve Had With Freshmen

#22 This Is A “Dad Joke” Gone Horribly Wrong

During move-in day, I had a parent take the dorm room door off its hinges and start sanding it down. I told him he couldn’t do that. He said needed to paint it because it didn’t match the rest of the room. He jokingly said, “You can pay me later.” Classic dad. I told him he couldn’t alter the room because the rooms had to be the same at the end of the year.

He insisted that he was improving it. Long story short, he had to be escorted out of the building by a campus police officer. On the way out, he took a dorm chair with him, insisting that he brought a chair for his daughter so he can take one home. I’ve never seen a cop laugh so hard. The dad was not allowed to keep the chair. His daughter was very embarrassed.
