Masturbation is fairly commonplace among college students.
The topic of masturbation has become more and more socially acceptable to the point where some colleges discuss masturbation as part of the college orientation process. New students at Amherst College receive a booklet that recommends masturbation as a safe sex alternative, according to the Washington Post. Because of the prevalence of masturbation and the fact that most college students have roommates and live in relatively close quarters, catching a roommate masturbating is not unlikely. This is particularly true in a dorm setting. There aren't too many places you can hide in there.
