This semester I’ve been assigned to teach in an ancient building called “Animal Industries.” The name sounds creepy, and the building is in fact very creepy, and several students have told me it’s haunted. (No doubt we’ll be doing some creative writing ghost hunting here before long). But, you know, despite (or maybe because of) its creepiness, this building is also really, really cool. We’re in the second week of classes now, and I’m very happy with our location.
Look! My classroom has windows—and a clock!
Interesting, creepy, and mysterious detailing in the hallways….
Across the way, the new Liberal Arts building is under construction....
And of course you know the new building will be terribly sterile and bland, part of the ongoing devolution of the American Soul….Give me Animal Industries any day!
