In 2003, SIOC rattled off a list of 100 things you absolutely, positively had to do before you graduated -- or before you died, at least. We said, "Play Oozeball (mud volleyball) at UConn." You oozed. We said, "Run the Penn Relays." You ran till your feet couldn't run any further. Two years later SIOC is back with 100 (and two) more things. We tell you where and why and, better yet, how. The rest is up to you.

1. Camp out for tickets at Penn State's Paternoville. Two students going at it on an Xbox. A group watching an old Fiesta Bowl game. Passersby stopping in for cold ones. It's another day at Paternoville, the hap-hap-happiest tent community in Happy Valley. P-ville's electricity is provided via extension cord, but the real source is the rekindled love affair with its 78-year-old namesake, Joe Paterno, WHO'S MADE BEAVER STADIUM OUR TOP 2005 GAME-DAY DESTINATION. Dan Clark, mayor of Paternoville, improved upon its conceptual forefather, Krzyzewskiville at Duke. "They have tent checks," Clark says. "I didn't like that."

2. Complete Dartmouth's Ledyard Challenge. Swim, sans skivvies, across the Connecticut River, which divides New Hampshire and Vermont. Then run back over the Ledyard Bridge, but beware of the awaiting police.

3. Hold hands with a "West Virginia mountain mama" and belt out Take Me Home, Country Roads alongside the Mountaineers football team -- and 60,000 others -- after a home win.

4. Make a pit stop at the notorious Boston College dive bar Maryann's for a thirst-quencher between miles 22 and 23 of the Boston Marathon.

5. Ski or snowboard down the 1,020-foot Snow Bowl in a cap and gown as part of the February graduation ceremonies at Middlebury.

6. Enter a Hottest College Girl contest Harvard senior Jenna Shoemaker became a babe in a bracket when she entered Collegehumor.com's Hottest College Girl contest last month. First prize: a trip to New York City, a $1,000 shopping spree at Le Tigre and a shot at appearing in the clothing line's ads. (A winner will be crowned in November.) Shoemaker (right), a former Crimson swimmer who last year placed second in USA Triathlon's Collegiate National Championships, lost by nearly 13,000 online votes in the first round to "Becky K.," a senior at online Walden University.

7. Divide and conquer all 46 of the Adirondacks' High Peaks with the Outing Club at St. Lawrence. In one fall weekend, each member takes on one or two peaks in a group effort to scale them all. (We'll forgive you if you stick to the small ones.)

8. Endure a Harvard movie marathon and watch Harvard Man, How High, Legally Blonde, Love Story, Stealing Harvard and With Honors. There's a four-star movie in there -- if you combine them.

9. Dress to the nines for Prom Dress Rugby at Swarthmore.

13. Hook up on the 50-yard line with your TA.

14. Kick a 20-yard field goal. If you miss, now you know how it feels.

15. KIDNAP A RIVAL SCHOOL'S MASCOT but treat him nicely, lest PETA get on your ass.

16. Grow a mustache for one semester.

17. Declare yourself draft-eligible. Anyone can do it.

18. Say something nice to Duke's J.J. Redick.

19. Make like Magnus Samuelsson and pull a pickup truck (or toss a keg)
in George Washington's Strongman contest.

20. Get footloose at the Jones Beach (N.Y.) Greekfest Weekend. Some 100,000-plus take in the traditional step show and the all-day concerts.

21. Keep your eye on the ball while participating in the Alpha Delta Phi house's naked punt returns at Yale.

22. How to... tackle the Reilly Burger The staple at Eagle's Deli, near BC, consists of six beef patties, 12 slices of cheese and five pounds of fries. Former Tufts tackle Adam Collette (6'8," 282 pounds) once ate seven patties. Here's his guide to conquering the Reilly:
• Fast until the feeding.
• Eat the burgers first. They firm up as the grease sets. Fries are great even cold. Just keep shoveling them in.
• A drink moistens the palate, but don't overdo it.
• When you finish, smile big for the Polaroid that goes on the wall.
