Architects Invade Cornell Libraries: Dragon Day Hijinks.
Posted by brian jeffrey on March 10, 2009
At 9:38, Monday, March 9, 2009, between 50 to 60 Architecture Students, disguised as College of Engineering students invaded Olin Library. According to one Olin Library Student worker, the Architecture students, complete with thick rimmed glasses and pocket protectors, reported to Olin Library staff that they each have “checked out 92 books and will return them by tomorrow.” Additionally, the mob requested Mat Lab study guides.
After many physics puns and high fives by the disguised students, Cornell Library staff attempted to remove the mob from Olin Library. The attempt failed, as the students retreated to Olin Cafe to continue the “demonstration”.
One Olin Library student worker recounts the event, “They get the idea to go to the cafe’ since this is outta our jurisdiction there is nothing we can do as architects are dancing with each other in a very nerdy fashion and grinding against the windows in slow motion…It is ridiculous as the nerds go outside and rub up against the glass and sell dragon day t-shirts, they laugh at us as we stand at the desk.”

HAHA! Dennis and I saw this from the sixth floor of Olin around that same time but had no idea what was happening. They were definitely extremely loud and obnoxious, as we could hear them from so high up. We thought they were actually filming a movie or something. I take serious offense to this as an Engineer!
