Maphazard, part 2

To the person who stole our 1993 campus map this week:
No, we will not pay any ransom to get it back.
That only encourages you to do it again, right?
And frankly we think your asking price of $5.00
was totally inappropriate for such a rare item!

Plaque Cemetery

Tucked away in a far corner of campus
is a special place where old memorials go to retire:

We've become so popular – 14 subscribers have joined us! An extra benefit has been the submissions coming in that are just too good not to share. Here's one, thanks to a tip this week from a reader.

Humans are visual creatures and a map can really help you find your way around such a large campus. And we take maps seriously here with a professional mat and solid wood frame. This allows our maps to serve visitors for decades.


Don't challenge the sign maker

Even if you paint a very large and easily visible indicator for the current level in the parking garage, you will still get a sign from the official sign maker. Apparently this has helped more people remember where to find their vehicles after work.

Okay, so then what does the BLACK text indicate?

Duuuuuunnn duunnh ... (Pretend this is the theme from Jaws.)



But at least you're helping advance science?


One has to wonder what kind of experiments we're doing on people ... if it means subjects have to say goodbye to all their friends and family forever and be moved to a secret location far away.


Re-sign-cling

I'm all for reusing materials and reducing waste
... and glad to see the sign makers are, too.

But this one is a s-t-r-e-t-c-h.

Email broke?

Hi! Looks like some subscribers did not receive my last 2 posts via email. Hopefully this message will get through so you can discover an extra-special student lounge on campus as well as an elevator button in case of weather emergency.

Natural disaster on a button

Back to the elevators here. One on campus has this lone black button – I'm so curious about it. It would seem instead we need one for "Tornado" but what do I know?

What does it do? Do you push it in the event of one happening?
... or to start one?


Student lounge

When I was in school, our student lounge had reclining chairs, games like ping-pong, and TVs. Guess things are different these days. Now I feel old.
