11> Worms make prison food worse and dorm food better.

10> RAs usually filch more of a delivered pizza than prison guards do.

9> While capable of it, dorm pork chops are rarely used as shivs.

8> Prison: Can’t be cruel or unusual. College: No such protection.

7> Prison food is served to dangerous psychopaths. Dorm food is made by dangerous psychopaths.

6> In school, your chances of getting shanked for your dessert are slightly higher.

5> If prisoners all get sick from the food, there’s an investigation. If college students all get sick from the food, it’s nothing new.

4> In prison, there’s at least the promise of a riot for entertainment.

3> They have laws protecting prisoners and requiring a certain level of nutrition. Students are on their own.

2> At least in prison you know why you’re being punished.
