Description

This is the word "Bees?" written vertically on a brick wall using periwinkle sidewalk chalk. During my freshman year (2018), a friend of mine began to write "BEES?" on various walls in campus. These would be in residential side, the tunnels, academic side, essentially anywhere there was surface to write on and not be obstructive (such as a wall within a classroom). He continued to do this through 2019, and inspired a similar 'movement' in that spring. On one night, he chalked over 200 of these across campus.
This really encapsulates the spirit of campus life, for me at least, before COVID. Going to campus, doing something likely ill-advised, and still finding time for classwork despite that. It also, in my opinion, speaks to the eccentric nature of a large number of students here.
