Written by Akshay Kothari & Neha Prakash   
hooked went on a hunt for the scandalous locations in NUS and here are the top 5 scandal-rich spots (in no particular order)!

We will not disclose names or specifics of any of the stories mentioned. Since most of them are rumours and hearsay, you are entitled to believe them or not - we’re not claiming these as facts.

And of course, any intelligent person would know that these are very exceptional instances, whereby not everyone who is found in these scandalous spots is considered to be all that scandalous.

So we hope our wise readers will not take these remarks too seriously (and attempt to lynch us)!

1. Prince George’s Park

        This specific NUS residence is rather legendary for its stories of what goes on at night and the inter-connectedness of the hook-ups and scandals that abound this place.

        Many attribute it to the high number of international and exchange students who're here for only a short time and hence have a tendency for short-term, whirlwind flings. Or it could simply be that boys and girls at this age being allowed to live near each other without restrictions, at the far end of the campus, simply breeds hormonally charged scandals.

        Whatever the reason, the scandals get especially entertaining for 'voyeurs' when people forget to draw the blinds given how close the PGP blocks are to each other.

        One very famous rumour (which may be true, but let's leave it speculative) was the passionate tryst between an American exchange student and a PRC scholar in the laundry room. The blinds unfortunately (or fortunately) weren't drawn, allowing full view for spectators. Apparently, they were rather loud too.

        So a tip for the scandalous, carry on if you must, but remember to close the blinds!

2. Eusoff Hall

        As with the nature of hall-living, scandals of a nocturnal nature are inevitable. Whether it be a tie on a doorknob or a loud blinking “Sex in progress” sign, people are at least polite about informing outsiders to keep out.

        However, throughout its history, Eusoff Hall has been particularly plagued with a dodgy reputation.



        Even in the 70s and 80s, Eusoff Hall was never famous for political gatherings or a secret underground following, but rather quite simply for monthly mass orgies. There’s no real way of verifying this as it’s always very secretive. So as for now, Eusoff remains an interesting hall, and we shan’t comment any further.

        But hey, it’s not a big deal.

        Some of the best colleges in the States have secret naked parties (yes, seriously, people HAVE to walk around with nothing on), so what’s a little romp in your room?

       (Editor's note: This is strictly the view of the writers and has absolutely nothing representative of hooked or NUS. We think mass orgy is very, very wrong.)

3. The Dungeon

        For those of you new to NUS or aren’t very familiar with the lingo used in the Arts Faculty, there’s a special area below the walkway from The Deck to the Central Library called the dungeon.

        It’s where students (and allegedly some tutors as well) go to smoke – that gravely heinous illegal activity on our smoke-free campus. Cigarettes only, of course; nothing more exciting (or not that we know of). But alongside all that smoking, there’s also plenty of socializing between like-minded individuals.

        Given its rather open arena, nothing spectacularly scandalous happens here (i.e. no noisy trysts), but some foundations definitely get laid.

        Very often, this is the starting point for many a relationship. Whether these relationships last or what they might lead to, is another story altogether.

        However, if you’re looking to observe some scandalous interaction between people, pretend to be a smoker and hang around long enough (and at this point, we’re obligated to inform you that second-hand smoke will someday kill you).
