Happy Kipling!!
In case you haven't noticed there's a lot of cool and/or funny stuff all over campus today - It's Kipling!! The day that graduating engineers get their iron rings!


Go have a look around campus and the eng building and enjoy!

The castle was taken down due to complaints of being offended. The text in question referred to "Butt Welds". Had they done some research... they'd realize that butt welding is actually a welding technique and their ignorance is amazing.

Get ready to get offended...

Haha, I knew it! We went to Subway at 4am and we were wondering what the car was doing at the arch. The pranks are awesome though. I wonder if Science students pull off pranks before they graduate...

Nope. Or at least not to the same extent/cultural significance as Kipling
