Like most institutions of higher education, we encounter many a big ego around campus. That's why it's SO very refreshing to find someone who doesn't consider herself such a big deal ... and orders a sign reflecting this.
The mysterious "Sudler Link"
As March reaches its end, the Metastasigns blog resurfaces for the first time in many, many months. It seemed like the perfect time to face the world and explain our absence. Why so quiet you ask? Because there has been a significant drop in examples of pure visual pleasure around campus. Things seem to be improving so much every day.
Is this a "sign" (quote-unquote)?
One must be careful when using "quotes." Quotes can add special new meaning to otherwise plain words.
The Two Anatomys
We've seen some interesting names on door signs around campus. Based on the sign below, we're assuming both Anatomy Morgues are authorized to enter this area.
Reaching a new (fur) low
It appears furloughs will be avoided, at least for now. While it's been a difficult time for state employees, it has also been a learning experience. For example, we learned the difference between "essential" and "non-essential" employees.
New is old and old is new again
Originally founded in 1905, KU Med has been at its current 39th and Rainbow location since the 1920s. By the late 1970s, a new hospital was needed.
And when that shiny new hospital was ready in 1979, of course we needed a sign ...
... apparently so you could find it ... um ... once you're already inside it?

This sign is located in a hospital corridor. Hmmm ....
Avoiding the commute
Haven't posted here in awhile but found the perfect thing today in the blue lot to prompt us to get back to it here ...

Atop the bluff garage, a broken sign ...
Days turn into weeks, and still the sign is not repaired nor is it removed. Pulling up in a car, a person probably can't read the sign with it leaning this way. The pavement is still marked to reserve the space, so perhaps the broken sign has been left for some "bigger" meaning to the world?

What's in a name?
This sign seemed curious. It supposedly represents Level 1 of the Medical Office Building, and yet actually displays a clinic on the 4th floor of Miller Building, not the MOB, followed by 3 individuals.
