Penis in the Paper Prank
A funny link

Senior journalism majors at the University of Utah spelled some spectacular acrostics in the final issue of their student newspaper, arranging their editorials to say PENIS and Carroll in very large type.

A picture is worth a thousand words, so we should be glad they skipped the other nine-hundred and ninety nine.
Unfortunately the University of Utah seems to think it's a preschool, and is holding up these students from graduating, because they spelled a naughty word. Luckily, they have the Associate Dean of Students Lori McDonald on their side. Oh, no, wait, she's accusing them of "intentional disruption or obstruction of teaching, research, administration, disciplinary proceedings or other University activities."

This is what you look like after your sense of humor is surgically removed.
They should be safe enough, though -- if she can be "disrupted" by a seven-year-old's idea of a bad word, a single episode of South Park should put her in a coma.
BONUS: The worst word in the world, prank-style!

UPDATE: All the students have been cleared of charges, and will be allowed to graduate. School officials were swayed by a letter from Adam Goldstein, an attorney advocate for the Student Press Law Center, who argued that the university was messing with the students' First Amendment rights: "If speech is a violation of the [student code of conduct], then the code of conduct is unconstitutional," he said in a letter. No word on whether his letter spelled out yet another hidden dirty word.

Frequently, young people under the stress of college will do things like this.
