drexel shaft

The term "Drexel Shaft" stems from the now-demolished fountain that was outside what is now North Hall. The name stuck, and then referred to the smokestack on top of a SEPTA and UPenn-owned building in the trainyard visible to anyone in Drexel University's campus. The smokestack was demolished on November 15, 2009

the Drexel Shaft became analogous with the "shafting" Drexel students receive from the administration personnel (or lack thereof) and all-around cost-to-graduation rate of the school.
Drexel Student 1: "fuck dude, I got 4s on over 3 AP tests and Drexel didn't give me ANY credit."

Drexel Student 2: "you just got the drexel shaft!"

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
