Traditionally, every [[entry]] and many upperclassmen suites have a quote board on which residents, and occassionally sober or not sober visitors, record those special moments when somebody says something that they ought to be reminded of forever. This distinguishes the quote board, which is intended to permanently hold content, from the [[white board]], which is a palimpsest intended for ephemera.
Quote boards are some large material that can be stuck to a wall and inscribed upon. Suites that care strive to put their own mark on a quote board not just in the text, but in the materials. Boards have been made of everything from transparent contact paper to . For ease of quoting in the heat of the moment, wise students will permanently affix a writing implement to the quote board, at least a pen, but the most posh of boards will feature a an array of magic markers . . . which will often slowly vanish over the course of a year.
It is a possible point of debate whether a quoteworthy thing one says should go on the nearest quote board, or on your quote board of origin. The most embarassing quotes probably go on both.
