Nothing inspires my Beacon pride like the pastel fiberglass gator knot. Seriously, I grew up in Florida where this would be expected and acceptable, it makes no sense here. Then again I'm no fan of the giant iron worker sculpture by the same artist outside Wheatly. My favorite campus sculpture was the green lobster coffin that used to grace the entrance to McCormick (is it back?). This of course has nothing to do with the course, I just wanted to try out my blog.
