To those who studied in Butler 210 last night— you were being watched!
The reason for filming is not nearly as sinister and panopticonny as it seems. A JSchooler was getting some stock footage for a documentary about a sober house built specifically for college students. She’s investigating what drives students to alcoholism, and plans to juxtapose the film of Butler monks with footage of binge drinking on St. Marks Place. Apparently, nothing says “I want to get wasted” like cracking some Rousseau and firing up the MacBook.

@Anonymous for what it’s worth, there was a camera in the big room on the 4th floor too
@Bureaucratic Buzzkill I sure hope this person got permission from University Event Management and the Office of Communications and Public Affairs.
@Anonymous I’m surprised Columbia doesn’t make you submit a form to the Office of Liquid Redistribution in order to drink from the water fountains, apply for a permit with the Office of Atmospheric Resource Management in order to breathe, and get licensed by the Lee Bollinger Memorial Toilet Authority in order to take a shit. I hate how you have to get permission for everything around here.
@Butlerian I was there last night..
@Anonymous I’ve been drunk in the library before.
