(n): The last-
ditch attempt among college seniors to find new hook-up partners or consummate a long-standing
crush before graduation. While the term may refer to the final year of college, it is usually understood to mean the final semester or trimester, especially during the last (spring) weeks of school. With the impending end of a college environment, the connotation of scramble is desperate solicitation and confession. The practice is common among both
men and women.
(v): to engage in a senior scramble, or to be
party to a senior scramble.
