Lets go watch the rabbits.
A large busy community college located on the West Coast has grassy areas scattered through out the campus. Some time back, no one remembers when, rabbits took up residence in the bushes which surround one of these meadows. As rabbits do, they multiplied and now a busy community of rabbits can be seen frolicking around the grass. Students often sit or lay on the grass, reading, eating studying, sleeping but sometimes just watching the rabbits. Watching rabbits doesn't necessarily enhance the students' abilities in class or on the athletic field but still it is a popular pastime, in fact ,practically a tradition at this school. And that is just the point. Not every endeavor at college needs to result in something. And many schools have memorable if pointless pastimes. Watching the rabbits at this school is a memorable part of the student's experience. On your campus there are probably a few pointless traditions and pastimes. If you haven't indulged in one or more of these do so. You wouldn't want to graduate with out at least having spent some of your time watching the rabbits.
