== '''1T5 Pranks''' ==
'''2011-2012'''
Pranks accomplished during the first semester of the 1T5's First Year included "The Great Gitoni Prank" and "Merry F!-mas". Thanks to these pranks and the 1T5 turnout to them, 1T5 students have been able to get involved, have been inspired to become more involved in extra-curricular activities and have become more comfortable with Skule.
'''"The Great Gitoni Prank"''', which was a Giant Foosball Table the size of the pit, was installed on November 27-28, 2011. Consisting of functioning foosball rods with attached players, balls, walls, field lines with "F!" in the middle, and goals this was a well designed prank. Unfortunately the prank was taken down by the start of December, but the field lines still remain, reminding F! to show their Skule Spirit.
'''"Chem 1T5 Prank"''', was done on the same day "The Great Gitoni Prank" was. The entrance of Sandford Fleming (SF) was flooded with 1500 balloons with all the elements in the periodic table written on them. Due to the amount of disruption that it caused at the entrance, the caretakers had to get rid of the balloons by the end of first lecture. By 10 PM, all the mess from the balloons were cleaned up.
'''"Merry F!-mas"''', was a phenomenal surprise by the 1T5's following the greatness of the Foosball Prank. It was accomplished on December 4, 2011 from 12pm-12am. Requiring 35 rolls of different wrapping paper, a lot of boxes (of all shapes and sizes, including a dryer box), a Yellow Hard Hat, a Santa Hat, lots of tape and staples, a few Toike Oike newspapers, a few hundred pieces of white/blue/red paper, fishing wire, twine, nails, Pizza and of course Christmas songs.
What was accomplished included hundreds of huge snowflakes hung around the basement above tables and chairs, many more snow flakes hanging from the 2nd floor across the atrium and spaced down fishing wire (5-7 snowflakes per wire, 3-5 wires per twine, ~6-11 lines of twine across atrium), long lines of linked rings/chains hung around the pit, a few hundred wrapped gift boxes bearing "F!", "F!ROSH", or "1T5" which were placed and stacked on all the ledges of the atrium from basement to 2nd floor, also wrapped boxes were placed above the ledge over the stairs from SF main entrance (Kings Cross Circle) to the basement. This was not the end of the prank, the prank also included a giant 10ft snowman that stood by the 1st floor ledge corner wearing a Santa Hat over a Yellow Hard Hat with a "Trollface", wearing buttons that made the "F!" and carrying a sign that read "1T5"!
This prank was even more of a success thanks to the 1T4's building a sleigh in the middle of the pit (which they began the day before), the conjunction of the two pranks made the atrium a wonderful, awe-inspiring and great place to sit in or look at, catching the eyes of all those who passed the atrium from 2nd floor to basement. There was also a large amount of 1T5 attendees to this prank, displaying the eagerness of 1T5s to get involved in extra-curricular activities and show their spirit.
An unintended effect created by the prank, was due to the lightness of the snowflakes, they were able to swing and turn slightly around the pit, and this also made the snowflakes down the atrium magical, appearing as snowflakes stuck in space but falling in the sky. Eventually, though, as soon as the prank was completed, snowflakes were actually falling from the atrium (due to falling off wire), but there were enough snowflakes to last until 2012, when they (and everything else) were taken down for Godiva Week preparations.

F!rosh Pranks are pranks carried out by the F!rosh class before the end of their first year at Skule. The pranks follow in the strong tradition of pranking in engineering culture and strive to show the creativity, ingenuity, and spirit of the first year class.

Past F!rosh Pranks[edit | edit source]

Frosh Class Prank
2T6
2T5 The 2T5s "flooded" the Pit by decorating it with an ocean theme with streamers, a kiddie pool, and more. Officially named "2T-Dive".
2T4 Due to the Skule year occurring fully online, the 2T4s pulled the "greatest prank of all": no prank.

On their PEY year, the 2T4s installed a snowglobe featuring a model Little Red Skulehouse in the Pit.

2T3 Created a giant 2TTree in the pit. May be the record holder for the longest standing prank, as it remained there for several months due to buildings being closed due to covid-19.
2T2 Created a giant yellow hard hat and put it in front of the Galbraith building. Additionally, several artistic boards were painted of first-year memories, and display signs mocking the shortcomings of the newly-opened Myhal Centre were placed around the building.
2T1 With a trio of pranks, the 2T1's built a 12ft. tall concrete 2T1 on Front Campus, a pit of balloons, first semester notes, and dancing Tall bois, and finally, at the end of the year, a mostly functional Skee-ball machine.
2T0 Built a trebuchet. It fired but was ultimately destroyed after an attempted modification.
1T9 / 1T9 TrackOne "Webwork": Created a spider web with a spider in the middle, hung above the pit. "Bubble Wrap the Pit": bubble wrapped all surfaces in the pit. "Mirror of Erised": Built the mirror from Harry Potter, with an interactive screen showing students' worst nightmares...
