The Cockroach Tree Incident
The Cockroach Tree Incident took place during the 2019-2020 academic year. Regarded as a legendary story by the class of 2021, it begins behind McConnell hall with a fake tree sitting beside the dumpster. The creative minds of TAMS students were on brilliant display as an unknown party decided to bring the tree inside and upstairs to the B300 wing. Here, it would be passed around for 2-3 days as a prank between the students of the A300 and B300 wings. While this took place, students would awaken the next morning to find a large amount of dead cockroaches in the A300 and B300 hallways. This problem was further exaggerated when an unknown party decided to take the tree and place it in one of the showers of the B300 community bathroom. The tree was later thrown out after it was determined that there was a cockroach nest inside the tree's planter.
