    Default What is this???

    Can someone please explain to me what this is? I was taking pics of campus this morning and stumbled onto it. There's no writing on it, but the area's obviously coordinated around it.




    Also, what are the historically/architecturally significant buildings on campus, or just hidden or little known scenic spots?

    Its on the outer edge of Girard Park. Next to the alumni house at the corner of Girard and St. Mary. At that corner they built over the summer a nice little brick gazebo to spruce up the corner. It turned out very well. It has become a popular spot for taking engagement pics and bridal pics.

    At first glance you may not recognize it as writing but it is actually the Ragin' Cajun Rosetta Stone.

    Yeah, I've got to see that movie. The trailers were pretty funny! When I read that post, that Downey line popped into my head.

    I was going to assume you know about the Campus Swamp since you have pictures from so close by.

    However since I haven't seen any from Cypress Swamp (I may have missed them) I was wondering if you had been by there?
