BREAKING NEWS: The statues are gone!
While running a very important errand on campus last week, I discovered that the giant statues in front of Marquand, the ones that we have all come to know and love, are gone and have been replaced with a plastic, white picket fence. After some brief research, it turns out that the statues were on lease to the University.

ReplyDeleteARe you serious?? That's so depressing.
I'm not so upset. I remember when the installation of those statues caused as much gnashing of teeth as you're experiencing now.
ReplyDeleteAlso: one of my fondest memories of campus life was when someone erected (single entendre) a giant snow-penis in front of that Picasso. I find it ironic that it's actually supposed to be a woman.
good riddance!!
