This document discusses research into why college students are silly. Through interviews with current and former students and teachers, the research found the main reasons for silliness in students are their friend circles, family status, and desire to show off to boyfriends/girlfriends. Silly students tend to become more well-rounded and experienced than "good" students, having knowledge of both positive and negative aspects of life. While silliness is okay in moderation, students should still show respect to families and authority figures. The research concludes silly students often develop into better people than those who are simply "good".
