Campus Photos Part 1

These photos were taken surreptitiously on a Sunday when New York University was not thronged by students. I didn't want to appear "gee-na" (read: easily excitable because of an ignorant or sheltered background) snapping photos on a regular day. But no, I didn't go to school on a Sunday just to show you my photos.

You wish! :-)

I was there to print my notes -- one of those free printing services.
But alas, it is closed on Sundays.



Guess what? Instead of finding a quiet campus, the Stern School of Business was having some orientation programmes for prospective students. By the way, Stern boasts of the nicest and the newest architecture (at least to me) with a large open space.




Purple and white are the thematic colours of NYU. The balloons tell it all.
Thank God I sneaked up to have a snack or two with cheese and some delicious brownies! That was my breakfast!

Quietly, I left Stern and walked towards the Steinhardt School of Education -- whose building paled in comparison with the Business School.



While waiting for a storytelling performance by Diane Wolkstein to begin, I went to the Bobst Library -- my favourite place. Taken from the fourth floor (I think), the library floor is an intentional maze of white and black patterns. The reason given -- to disorient anyone from jumping down and committing suicide. It does make sense -- the patterns are quite disconcerting from this angle.
