I got put on probation for redirecting my ~/.bash_history to /dev/null and removing my `finger` information with `chfn`. Universities can be pretty ridiculous with their disciplinary actions.
Why... why would redirecting your .bash_history to /dev/null be a punishable offense? I assume it's so they could check for evildoing on your part, but that seems like a ridiculously idiotic way of doing it.
