Tip two: two’s a company, three’s a crowd. It’s fine if you want to walk next to your friend but, oh wow, three abreast is just hogging the entire walkway. Either organise yourselves into a triangle or ditch the extra friend. The shoulders of oncoming walkers will thank you.
Tip three: people on bicycles are idiots. And probably in res.
Tip four: people standing still in thoroughfares deserve to be pushed over. Has your brain paused? Is this conversation you’re having vital to the redemption of humanity? Is this the only spot on campus where you can find Wi-Fi? There are chairs and tables at Tribeca. Please converse there if the answers is no. I’ve heard the Musaion has great Wi-Fi for the more anti-social.
Tip five: if you want to take a stroll around campus, avoid doing so during the 10 minutes that classes change over. There is nothing more frustrating than needing to get between South campus and Law in ten minutes and having to do it when held up by strollers. Yes, maybe you have the chill quotient of a chinchilla, but that doesn’t mean your lecturers do.
Stay safe kids, lest I greet you on the walkways with a skelmboog to the face. (Herman tells me it’s an effective path-clearing tool).
