This room is structurally in the middle of the relatively small journalism school. The narrow cylinder of the room and thin walls makes the room susceptible to hearing involuntary sounds. The rooms white bare walls and desks with Macs on them and desk and dry erase board and printer are all typical, but the Jersey Shore soundtrack is an intruder.
Reminiscent of Freshman year, when you would have neighbors who decided to play their loud (and bad) rock music exactly as you were sitting down to study. Any other time but now would be great, for you to obnoxiously and carelessly play bass-heavy tunes. It seems obvious, that if you play music or soundtracks or film or even YouTube videos at a high enough volume others outside of the neighbors room can hear.
Its loud, intrusive, but somewhat comical, this rave-like music that permeates the walls seems oddly out of place even in a school known for pushing "normalcy" boundaries. After the quiet laughter dies down of students hearing the music from the familiar inconsiderate class next door, things somewhat return to normal.
Hearing unsolicited noises is funny ... only the first few times, and then it becomes a nuisance.
