WTF Brandeis

[wtfbrandeis]

Shocking photo of extraterrestrial beings waiting to be served on the Brandeis campus! Photo direct from a top-secret informant, codename “Charlotte.”

(In front of the Shapiro Campus Center during the Festival of the Arts.)

I am sure this poster is extremely edifying for the sort of people who enjoy visualizing data on triangles.

This past summer, the campus was visited by the ghost of Louis Brandeis, who came to warn us that we would be visited by three ghosts this winter: The Ghost of Winter Past, The Ghost of Winter Present, and The Ghost of Winter Present again.

July 2014: Brandeis begins a project to cordon off handicapped parking spaces with milk crates and yellow construction tape. (At the side-entrance of Heller.)

On the paths in front of Shapiro today, I saw a guy with a mohawk wearing a suit and riding a unicycle.

(A little context for people who aren't from Brandeis: These are the Scheffres and Gordon dorms. It is on the north side of campus well away from any public roads.)

These giant signs serve the very important role of informing anyone who has forgotten what campus they are on that this is Brandeis University.

I have no idea what this triangle is supposed to mean. There were a bunch of them posted on light poles.

Mar. 9—University Police received a report that a suspicious white male pointed his finger at assorted persons and alarmingly yelled “bang bang” in the North Quad parking lot.Officers arrived at the scene but were unable to locate the reported individual.

The latest Justice police log. Seems like a bit of an annoying thing to do to random people, but how alarming could it have been? Doesn’t seem worth calling the cops over… (via neversoma)

Mar. 13—University Police received a report of a suspicious elderly male approaching the campus’ main entrance. Officers later determined that the man had been searching for the Brandeis-Roberts commuter rail station.

The other great thing from the police log. I always wonder in situations like this…what did the caller find suspicious about the guy? (via neversoma)

Brandeis is fully prepared against fires on the underside of stairs.

Just in case you can't tell, the headline at the top reads "Learn How to Eat Right."

I have nothing against the workshop, and I'm proud that Brandeis is a university where this could be openly advertised, but this poster is an abomination. The workshop is about sex, not the five food groups. And what the hell is up with that guy walking up the stairs? Who thought this poster was in any way clever instead of embarrassing?

This hydrant appears to be sinking into the quicksand-like Brandeis turf.

Why the hell are the seats on the Waltham BranVan covered metal frames?
