No, Brad Pitt and Edward Norton are not taking classes at the New Jersey university.

Several students have created their own fight club much like the one made famous by the 1999 film. The members relieve their frustration and agression by beating the tar out of each other. The founder of the club does say they were inspired by the movie but claims this is much safer, "We've had some black eyes and a bloody nose, but we've never had anyone get knocked out or anything like that."

Of course by providing that quote, the founder broke the first rule of Fight Club -- don't talk about Fight Club.
