Ah, spring. Nice weather. Classes slowly strolling to their end. Prefrosh descending on the campus. And hoooooly crap, a whole lot of events coming up! And with those events, some pretty intense publicity. The area outside the Science Center is basically a war zone for the pamphlet wielding minions that loiter around its entrance, shoving info about events into your hands left and right–ELEGANZA! SEXY DHALL PARTY! TOTALLY AWESOME LECTURE! By this point, I’ve become desensitized. I smile and take a pamphlet and keep walking each time (I take one every time it’s offered because I know how difficult it is to approach people with those darn things!).

Every once in a while though, a publicity initiative thinks outside the box and does wonders. Today, there were pieces of a mannequin strewn across the rocks of the Science Center. Um, the mannequin was naked and covered in paint and words and stuff. Pretty hilar, so thumbs up for Fat Men in Skirts, a “hysterical dark comedy” for coming up with this publicity idea!

Also, there were water jugs on the Science Center lawn but…this clearly caught more of my attention. Bravo.
