The SS Frathouse as dubbed by a bunch of college kids was a somewhat low budget expedition to a relatively friendly planet and maybe start some sort of civilization that could be used as a pit stop at some point. If they didn't make it... It wasn't that big of a loss... If they did then they could do what drunk college kids could do and fuck. Said college students had around a C-average grades, and were mostly expected to survive by using tech and hopefully their descendants would be smart enough to pick up on how to do stuff.
The expendable idiots were then shot out into space towards the relatively non-hostile planet filled with common resources... Of course the budget tech wasn't the most dependable so when someone died there would probably be some issues with the cloning bay... Especially as there weren't a lot of people who could operate the machines properly. So let's see what happens when you get a bunch of young adults with sci-fi tech, food/alcohol generators that recharge faster than they can be used, and no one who really understands all the settings.
