Some lesser-known myths might be:
-The secret bomb tunnels underground. Supposedly, if you try to find them, you’ll get expelled. I really don’t think they actually exist, but it’s fun to imagine anyway.
-The shankerbot!!! So, legend has it, some science students made a robot once for a party, and for some reason attached a knife to its arm. The robot proceeded to shank a member of the party, and so the bot was sentenced to the basement of Noyce. This one is actually true, my friends and I found it
-The theme parties are a HUGE tradition too, of course, but I think the other commenters covered those pretty well.
