Trail Mix: College Students Doing Dumb Things

* Two students from the University of Colorado-Boulder, who police say were "visibly intoxicated," were arrested early Wednesday morning after allegedly carting bows and arrows and hunting raccoons on campus, the Campus Press reports. The pair were found around 2:50 a.m. near the school's chemistry building "literally, like hiding behind bushes and things like that," a police officer said. They were held for possessing a deadly weapon on university property.

*Two Keene State University students have been charged with reckless conduct after taking an inflatable kiddie pool over waterfalls last month, the Keene Equinox reports. One of the "rafters" got trapped underneath the falls and was rescued by Keene firefighters, who also had to retrieve a woman who jumped in to try to save him.
