Iowa State Students Have A Snapchat Full Of Booze, Drugs, And Nudity, University Surprisingly Wants To Shut It Down

#DoItForState was one of the best kept non-secrets over the last few months. For those unfamiliar with the hashtag, a Snapchat account, which has been deleted and recreated under several different aliases, but commonly referred to as StateSnaps, has captivated the city of Ames, Iowa.

From KCCI 8:

A growing Snapchat site filled with nudity, sex and booze is entertaining thousands and frustrating Iowa State University.

Here’s a little taste of what students snap into the account:

And those are some of the more tame submissions. I had to keep it PG, as we here at TFM are a family website.

Shockingly, the administration at ISU isn’t exactly thrilled with the account. Saving face and protecting their public image is apparently more important to the university than the countless hours of entertainment the Snapchat has provided.

I’m not saying Iowa State University is against the college experience being an enjoyable venture, but I am saying this is the same school that put the kaput on a century old party tradition in VEISHEA. Read into that all you want.

The correct play would be for the University to completely embrace this Snapchat account. Slap #DoItForState on some T-Shirts and I guarantee school apparel profits skyrocket. Let’s also address the biggest elephant in the room: StateSnaps simply makes going to school in the middle of fucking nowhere Iowa look somewhat pleasant. Maybe it’s my closed mindedness to the Midwest, but I fully expected every girl at ISU to be pasty and pushing two bills. After following the account, I was delightfully surprised with the talent in Ames. Good showing, ladies.

Because of the nudity I can’t directly link you to the website, but I have complete faith in all of you stumbling across it.

#DoItForState while you still can.

    I was under the impression that this was a fraternity website, not a family one. I guess that explains a lot of the recent decision making by the staff

        Obviously Snapchat does not work if we are seeing these images. Do you give me your word of honor that My Cyber Dust comments will never be seen?

        Come on, Dorn. You’re lying if you don’t agree that the current TFM is a shell of its former self

    Dear Grandex CEO,
    I respect that you want to reach a broader audience to make more money. Please incorporate a new company to reach this broader audience so that TFM can remain exclusive and not have to worry about offending non Greeks.
    Thank you.

      Motion to require proof of membership in a fraternal organization for access to this site

        That would eliminate anonymity. How about you click “accept” that you are 18. They could charge a $5/month fee for a forums password, which could be payed with iTunes or a prepaid gift card.

    Remove the sailboat on the top picture or you’ll have a revolt on your hands, Jack.

    Gossip websites will link to third-party sites with every celebrity nude leak or nip slip and a website dedicated to fraternity life won’t?

    So Snapchat does not work as advertised? Those pics don’t look disappeared to me.
