If The Cast Of "Friends" Were Oakland University Students

With 10 seasons of pure, genuine television, Friends set the stage for the ordinary, day-to-day lives of six 20-somethings. For years, we watched them morph into successful, fun-loving adults.

But, what if they went to Oakland University?

Sure, we know Chandler and Ross were roommates, and that Ross got high, but what kind of students were they?

No one can deny that much of what the friends say and do relate to college students. My new favorite episode is "The One Where They Went To Oakland University."
