Rutgers University paid $32,000 to bring “Jersey Shore” star Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi to campus—$2,000 more than it doled out for Nobel- and Pulitzer-prize-winning author Toni Morrison. During the question-and-answer session—paid by student fees—Polizzi discussed her “gym, tan, laundry” mantra, fist pumps and of course her hair. “The poof is its own living form, it’s my trademark but people always expect it,” she said. “It’s a summer hairstyle, so if I want to Snook the night, I’ll wear the poof.” (Los Angeles Times)
