A merry prankster appears to have set off the fire alarm in Butler, driving the huddled masses out into the pouring rain (UPDATE: students have been let back in now). Tipster Amanda Santamaria, though, stuck around long enough to record the rarest of sights: an empty Butler 403.
And yet it probably still smells to high heaven.

@Anonymous The screeching noise of the Butler fire alarm is like the warm loving arms of mother Columbia, telling us we’ve been working too hard and we really need to get out and go to bed and talk to girls but if we don’t do it now we’ll have to have a lecture about fire safety because she worries about us so much.
@403 stench its not rotten milk… it is the putrid vomit odor associated with freshmen who have just been introduced into the world of unmonitored alcohol overconsumption.
@oh yeah because clearly the wasted freshman find themselves in butler 403 after a late night.
if you’re going to make a snarky comment, at least have it make sense. that’s all we ask for.
@effin prankster made me late for handing in my paper that was due at 3. i hope columbia catches your ass and expels you.
@yes and it’s always spectacularly empty because no one knows it’s there. Last time I was there, counting the librarian and myself there were 5 people
@SHHH NO ONE MUST KNOW.
@any guesses as to which library will be on fire tomorrow?
Yesterday it was Avery, today Butler. Chem tomorrow, perhaps?
@there's a chem library?
@no no there is absolutely not
@FELLOW STUDENTS... shower.
That is all.
@lskdj Dear Bwog,
I was dissapointed by your response time on this topic. I was on the 6th floor wondering whether it would be smart to be too lazy to evacuate or risk burning to a crisp.
I tried checking you.
You failed me.
@WHY does your mom ALWAYS smell like rotten milk???
@sorry i’ll clean up next time
@WHY does my hallway ALWAYS smell like rotten milk???
@WHY does butler 403 ALWAYS smell like rotten milk???
@qft i want to know!
@it's an important question. butler 403 ALWAYS smells. why?
@clearly It’s where the smelly kids hang out! Thanks, pre-meds, for driving your inter-competitiveness so far that you won’t take breaks to shower.
@Sigh Question:
Why so cruel Columbia?
This morning I was woken up at 7 am by the motors and power washers that are running on full blast to clean off our lovely little Van Am statue/gazebo for Graduation. It’s Reading Week. 24/7 quite hours. It’s the first time all semester my suite is behaving, but nope Columbia decides to ruin my sleep today. Seriously.
@Lol It’s like the rapture but with Asians instead of evangelicals!
@glad I’m in SIPA
@Gah Is it over yet?
@yeah You can come back now.
