Having not attended college for one week I felt so bored that i went to the barber and had the shortest crew cut available (1 level b4 botak).

The crew cut was adopted by the United States armed forces during World War II, and became a civilian fashion for men during the early 1950s. The cut was felt to be "clean-cut, athletic, and patriotic." By the mid 1960s, the crew cut was generally seen as a mark of conservative politicial opinions, as opposed to the longer hair styles favored by those less trusting of the government.
A similar style, under the name buzz cut, returned to fashion in the late 1990s.

Chris Mullin, a former NBA player for the Golden State Warriors, had the crew cut in his playing days and still has one to this day
