The phenomena that occurs at school (generally towards the end of a class) when one person puts their papers away and, like a yawn, inadvertently causes the rest of the class to follow suit by shuffling their things together at the same time. The result of which is a very loud and distracting noise something like a popcorn maker in a hailstorm.
Responsible kid 1: "Hey man did you get the homework assignment from Algebra today?"
Responsible kid 2: "Nah bro, the professor was finishing up his lesson when some douche behind me started packing up."
Responsible kid 1: "Dude, what a prick."
Responsible kid 2: "Yeah, he caused an End of Class Yawn and the class never got focused enough for the professor to finish."

Sean passed his yawn to everyone in the freaking room just because he stayed out too late last night. It was like the fucking Voyage of the Yawn Spreader in there.
Don't even think about taking Jefferson's Public Administration class. It's just another Voyage of the Yawn Spreader. Everyone falls asleep within the first ten minutes.
