To go "nerding" means that you and a few buddies drive around grounds (aka campus) after a long night of drinking (with a sober driver of course...usually a pledge) between the hours of bars closing and frat parties ending (2-5 am), and proceed to ask drunk 1st years going back to dorms and nerdy foreign kids leaving the various libraries, where a certain library on grounds is located. The catch is that you have to butcher the name of the library slightly, so that the victim of the joke corrects you. Once the victim does this, you and the rest of the fellas in the SUV proceed to yell "NERRRRDDD" to the kid while speeding off to the next contestant.
NERDING:
The driver pulls up to the unsuspecting victim and someone in the car asks: "Hey man, do you know where we could find Akerman Library?"
The dumb victim responds (usually hesitant): "Don't you mean Alderman Library?"
Everyone then yells: "NERRRRRRRRRRRDD" and the car speeds away.

A nerd is *not*:

4. Someone who thinks of themself as a nerd, yet cannot hold an intelligent debate.
5. If you are reading this article to determine whether you are a nerd or not, you are not. Nerds do not need to look up the definition of "nerd", it is a label with no consequence whatsoever, and nerds have better things to do than play along with societal stereotypes. That being said, if you merely want to see what people think of when they think of the word "nerd", because human thought processes, societal constructs, and philosophy are so interesting, consider yourself a nerd.
Synonyms include booksmart

Nerd is only a label. It doesn't matter whether you are one or are not one. Nobody cares either way, and you should not, either.
