DON’T ARGUE IN CLASS

Unless you are in a debate, there’s no reason for classmates to fight with each other, especially over a special someone.

DON’T CHEAT


Seriously! Do we need to repeat ourselves? We all know it’s not good. Don’t step to the Dark Side – make sure you are legit. Besides, many of the profs use Turnitin.com to catch plagiarism.

DON’T DROP UNDER 12 UNITS AS A FULL TIME STUDENT


It’s like drugs. Don’t do it.

DON’T EAT SOMEONE ELSE’S LUNCH


Karma’s a bitch, and it will come back to bite you in the ass. Would you like it if you came back to your table and your greasy burger was missing?

DON’T FORGET TO LOCK YOUR BIKE


If this is your only mode of transportation, you are basically screwed if you don’t take care of it. If a student doesn’t steal it, you can be certain some squirrels will bike off with it.

DON’T GET ON MY NERVES


I will go medieval on your rear end if you tick me off in the wrong way. Just don’t be annoying. That’s all I ask.

DON’T HIT ON YOUR TEACHERS


Sure, he/she might be cute but you should focus your attention on studying, not dating.

DON’T INGEST THE SPECIAL BROWNIES


HeHe. I forgot what I was going to write.

DON’T JAY-WALK


When crossing Stevens Creek Boulevard or Stelling Road to get your quick fix of coffee, beware of the PoPo.

DON’T MAKE FUNNY NOISES IN CLASS


OK, it may be funny the first time, but how many water droplets must we hear from you? We get it, you are talented in the most annoying way.

DON’T PARK BESIDE CARS IN WORSE SHAPE THAN YOURS


You do this, and the Domino Effect will happen in Parking Lot B. Do leave a note on the car of the crappy parker, expressing your most intimate thoughts.

DON’T XEROX YOUR BUTT!


Sure it might impress your dorky roomate, but imagine the germs and bacteria you are leaving on the glass. Yuck. Someone call Dr. House!


DON’T SPEED IN THE PARKING LOT


We understand you might be in a hurry to get somewhere, but don’t let that affect your responsibility as a driver. Safety first.


DON’T HATE ON LA VOZ


We understand your frustration with being misquoted or not having the correct facts, but remember that they are only students. No one’s perfect.

DON’T PLAY THAT SONG ON YOUR GUITAR


We admire the talent you have on the guitar, but don’t try to impress your fellow classmates with playing Stairway to Heavan, Everlong and Smells Like Teen Spirit. It’s not the first time they’ve heard it played on the guitar. Don’t be original.

BE ORIGINAL


Don’t be like every one else. What makes De Anza the place to be is the diversity it promotes. Have your own style, flare and personality. Don’t be like everyone else. Think Different.
